! This program has already dismissed five Black women from the 2025 cohort. Multiple directors and faculty members have resigned from their positions, citing the racism, bias, and systemic unfairness within the administration. Currently, Hanover is facing a lawsuit for systemic racism and sexism within the program. There are two directors in particular who have openly expressed that Black students make them uncomfortable through both words and actions.
Beware: White students who were removed from their fieldwork placements have been given additional chances to remain in the program and be reassigned elsewhere. Yet, when Black students experience challenges in a so-called “mentorship” course, we are not granted those same opportunities or grace.
If you are considering applying to or attending this program be warned. The administration, including Interim Director Aguilar and Theresa Delbert, are money-driven and uphold systems of inequity. Proceed with caution.

In my opinion, they chose money from a donor over what is right. Do not donate or trust administration when it comes to...
