Welcome from the Dean
Education has the power to change lives. It opens the door for individuals to see new possibilities and to develop skills and ideas that propel them forward. Our goal in the College of Education and Human Services is to provide an environment rich in learning opportunities that are accessible to all.
As Dean, I have the pleasure of working with our faculty and professionals in the community to help shape that educational experience. By bringing the professional world into the classroom and then the classroom to the professional world, we enhance your educational experience and help you make connections that position you for future success. I also hope your experiences with us help nurture your love of learning so that you continue to seek learning opportunities, either formal or informal, throughout your life. Finally, my goal is to remove barriers to these educational experiences so that all can benefit.
