Tusculum will hold a roundtable discussion via the Zoom virtual platform called “Who, What, When, Where and Why of Graduate School.” The event will take place Wednesday, March 3, at 7 p.m.
Participating in the conversation will be the following Tusculum faculty members:

“Having studied in graduate school ourselves, we welcome the opportunity to discuss our experiences and encourage people to pursue that next step in their education,” Dr. Ashford said. “Graduate school opened a lot more doors professionally and gave us that satisfaction derived from pursuing our dreams. We are pleased to be a resource and provide participants the information they need to make an informed choice.”
