We are here for you and ready to assist as needed. Remember to make an appointment to meet virtually with your teacher education mentor. That person is listed in your degree audit. If you are in a program for 5-12 or K-12, your faculty mentor is Dr. Conrad. If you are in K-6, your faculty mentor is either Prof. Novack or Dr. Pickel. If you are in early childhood, your mentor is Dr. Starks, but she is on sabbatical this semester, so please contact Dr. Gehrke for any questions or needs. Many blessings on your learning and your relationships!
