A Word from the Dean
I am profoundly honored and excited to introduce myself as the dean of ºÚÁϳԹϒs School of Education. I accept this role with immense gratitude and look forward to building on the strong foundations laid by my predecessors.
ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï has a rich tradition of academic excellence and a commitment to nurturing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Situated in the heart of Chicago, our institution blends liberal arts education with professional studies, all within our Christian identity and values. We are dedicated to preparing our students for lives of significance and service, equipped with the knowledge, skills, and character to make a meaningful impact in their communities and the world.
The School of Education offers various transformative programs for future educators and leaders. Our graduate programs focus on developing leaders prepared to address the complexities of modern education. In addition to traditional programs, we offer alternative education programs for career-changers and non-traditional students. We aim to prepare tomorrow’s educators and leaders and foster a community that values equity, inclusion, and excellence in teaching and learning.
I look forward to working with our community to shape the future of education.
Thank you,
Jerri A. Haynes, EdD
