In the past year Dr. Snow has enhanced the online and technical components for several courses, as well as improving field experiences for several courses. She also upgraded one hybrid course into a fully online format. As Program Coordinator for the Elementary Education Graduate Programs, she has been instrumental in the success of our fully online Master’s and Ed. S.

The award is given each year to a College of Education faculty member who has distinguished service in teaching, scholarship, and service. The recipient was chosen by a committee of her peers.
