“The history program at Naz concentrates on historiography by studying the works of other historians and the documents and methodology they used. Nazareth prepared me so well for graduate school. Courses are writing intensive. The Naz professors really refine your writing and make it reach its peak. Being a good writer means being a good reader and speaker, which is important for your studies, for your career, and for reaching your goals in everyday life.”
