Says James about his Goddard experience: “In the Goddard MFA program, I’ve received tremendous individualized support from my advisors, Ryan Boudinot and Darrah Cloud. Each semester’s study plan is crafted to meet my educational needs. Goddard College encourages students to take ownership of their own learning. There are no one-size-fits-all curricula at Goddard; every student comes away from individual advising sessions with something unique.”
