graduate degrees in the "America’s Best Graduate Schools" issue of U.S.
News & World Report. UK's master's of nursing program also was listed, ranked

The listing is in the magazine currently available on newsstands and also on the

reflects high quality faculty and students.

service," Lubawy said. "I think people are beginning to recognize that."

rankings. |
