    Summary
    Our ideal student is serious about making a difference in the world but is lacking some of the skills and knowledge to make it happen. As this student, you will have some experience in an organization that aspires to social good or experience as a social activist. In other words, you will have already taken the plunge and want this degree to help make you stronger and better. Students are expected to have some organizational work experience, either paid or volunteer.
