Default Advice on Master's Degrees in N.Y. area & beyond

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of any information regarding Queen's College Master of Science Degree Program in Nutrition and Exercise Science. Their website address is http://qcpages.qc.cuny.edu/FNES/graduate.htm#MS_NES. I live in N.Y.city area & am strongly considering this program however I can't seem to find any reviews of it or what the industry thinks of it in general. Any advice would be appreciated.

William D. McArdle, who co-authored among others "Exercise Physiology: Energy, Nutrition, and Human Performance" which is the standard entry-level text in exercise physiology used to teach there, but he's retired. I've actually been curious about that program myself, since I'm already a student in the CUNY system...however, the quality of a program isn't just the educational portion of it, but the opportunity for experience working in a school's performance lab as well as being able to work with the teams and athletes...I don't really know the opportunity for this in CUNY. On the other hand, the combined Nutrition/Ex Sci degree and opportunity to earn your RD license is very intriguing...
