March 2011MSOL Alumni on the Move... Across western Pennsylvania and beyond, MSOL graduates are receiving promotions, enrolling in doctoral programs and experiencing other positive changes in their lives, thanks to the quality, faith-based education they received at Geneva College. I often receive phone calls and e-mails from MSOL alumni and it′s always a pleasure to hear of their accomplishments and the way God has opened doors of opportunity for them. We use this information on a regular basis to help us answer one of the most often asked questions from people interested in enrolling in the MSOL Program: "What have graduates been able to do with this degree?" It's much easier to respond to that question with the many stories of how our graduates apply what they learned at Geneva to both their workplace and their lives, and have been able to leverage their MSOL experience and degree towards beneficial career moves. We want everyone who receives the Link to Leadership to know what is happening among our MSOL alumni. Following is a collection of some recent accomplishments of our graduates.
