We have a very good relationship\u00a0with the Business Department at Felician, and we believe the opportunity to expand our existing agreement\u00a0to include the ability to pursue an MBA degree is an exciting development for our students, something we\u00a0hope they will explore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Herron noted the two schools already have an agreement linking the Nursing programs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been able to observe our Nursing graduates participating in Felician\u2019s program,\u201d he said. \u201cThe way\u00a0Felician has supported our students is very impressive and demonstrates its commitment to our\u00a0partnership.
