History/History for Educators - Testimonials

“The Master’s program in History at La Salle, unlike most master’s level History programs, advanced my knowledge of frequently neglected historical methods   and applications that have grown increasingly important and common to the study of history. The faculty emphasizes the need to employ social scientific and humanistic research methodologies that enhance the quality of   historical analysis and magnify the quantity of available source materials. Dr. Francis Ryan, for instance, guided my research on the historical   significance of the Harlem Renaissance in shaping African-American identity during the twentieth century and insightfully instructed me on what literary and historical sources I should utilize within my research.  After completing my degree at La Salle, I sought a Ph.D. program that would build on my previous graduate work in African-American and Intellectual History and would offer similar educational challenges and advantages to those I had experienced at La Salle. As I prepare to begin my doctoral studies at   the University of Rochester, I intend to apply what I had been taught at La   Salle to my doctoral research and to teach future students about the   different research techniques and methods that La Salle’s faculty imparted to me.”

“I wanted a graduate program that was practical, but more challenging than the trendy on-line universities my colleagues were stuck in. I found a home at La Salle. Evening classes fit my schedule, and the historical readings courses I am enrolled in have enhanced my academic prowess. Having the assistance of a well respected faculty of professional historians is also an invaluable asset. You won't find that on-line.”
- Michael DiCamillo

“The history program at La Salle is both challenging and rewarding; as a high school teacher I am able to apply what I am learning into my classroom. The style of the program is inventive in its blend of reading courses and hands-on 'teaching history' courses. I would have to say that the program fits every criteria I was looking for in a Masters program.”
- Patty Roessner

“The degree of flexibility in the program and accessibility of the professors is unparalleled, compared to my prior graduate education. The professors are extremely excited about the program, have thoroughly mastered their respective disciplines,and engage the students at every opportunity. The structure of the program and competency of the professors makes this a perfect program for the working professional.”
