And when asked if it felt good to be the first program to get students through a doctoral program at MSU and MnSCU, Meiers smiled and said “yes.”

“I’m very pleased with how our university has supported this,” she said. “It feels good that we were able to garner the talent and resources to be able to support this.”

It was a long time coming. Meiers said faculty planned the program for two years before the first students arrived.
