Description: Stephens College began offering traditional courses in 1833. Its School of Graduate and Continuing Education offers programs designed to address the content and logistics needs of nontraditional students. The staff is attuned to the complications of maintaining jobs, handling family responsibilities, and completing degrees, because many teachers have been nontraditional students themselves. With a curriculum that emphasizes concerns of women and ethnic minorities, the program also strives to promote and enhance personal and professional development, personal empowerment, and leadership skills.
