The Future is Holistic! By Bruce Cryer, President, The Graduate Institute T
wenty years into its role as the lead- ing accredited institution for holistic studies on the East Coast, The Gradu-
ate Institute has charted a unique course in higher education. Our mission is to provide transformative education based on an inte- grative and holistic perspective designed to enable students to reach their full potential both professionally and personally.
Our renowned Masters and Certifi cate
programs offer a new model for education which is steeped in a holistic worldview, seeing individuals, communities, families, organizations, and countries as whole inte- grated interrelated systems, a view which is increasingly relevant for the uncertain, wor- rying COVID-dominated times we live in.
Having joined the Institute just in
June of this year, I have been impressed by the depth, experience and richness of our faculty which is comprised of world class scholars in the fi elds of Integrative Medicine, Consciousness Studies, Organi- zational Leadership, Ecotherapy, Learning and Thinking, Positive Psychology, Creative Writing and Storytelling; to name a few. Our distinguished faculty provides not only professional expertise, deep knowledge, and wisdom, but they also provide essen- tial input in the review of academic stan- dards, programs, research, future planning, degrees and certifi cation.
