Education Faculty

 

One of the outstanding features of the Education department is the relationships that form between the faculty and their students. Faculty have a strong desire to make a postive impact on students so they can make a positive impact when they become teachers. Students thrive here, and are encouraged to grow and reach their full potential. Our faculty also have a wide and diverse range of experience, with preparation and teaching experience through the K-12 range not only in Iowa, but Missouri, Kentucky, New Mexico, Texas, Ohio, Nebraska, Tennessee and New Jersey as well.
