Crap, I overslept for nonprofit class!

There's a class for just about everything else -- why not nonprofit stuff? Sure, lots of standard courses are somewhat relevant, but why claw your way through corporate case studies when you know you're headed down a different path?


I know there are some master's-level programs out there (i.e. nonprofit administration), but I haven't heard of a bachelor's program in nonprofit anything. And my college certainly didn't have nonprofit-focused courses.

Did you take a nonprofit course in college? Were they offered? What -- of the courses you did take (and didn't sleep through) -- is most relevant to the nonprofit sector and what you want to do there?

i Kate -

I read your blog periodically (gotta love facebook stalking) and actually have something of value to add. One of my friends from college started a Public/ Non-Profit Management major at the University of Minnesota.

Thought you and your readers might want to check it out.

P.S.

It was supposed to read "Hi Kate" not "i Kate" at the top.

SWEET! Thanks, Reb!! Do you know anyone who's doing the program now?
