The program is developmental and sequenced in a purposeful manner; it combines both in-person and technology-based learning. Dr. Noaveyar Lee successfully defended her dissertation entitled: NAVIGATING THE INTERSECTIONS OF LEADERSHIP: NARRATIVES OF BLACK FEMALE EDUCATORS to identify how educators of marginalized communities demonstrate agency and innovation in their roles.
The Master's in School and College Counseling program provides preparation for school service, as students learn not only counseling and consultation skills but also how to build helping relationships. Noaveyar's master thesis produced a case study on the impact of educational programs in K-12 and higher education.
This major allows students to see the myriad interconnections of politics, culture, and economics, big power structures and everyday interactions, persistent social inequalities, and the practices of intimate life. This educational journey facilitated Noaveyar's work in social service, education, leadership and a myriad of other disciplines.
