Student Spotlights

Highlighting Excellence in the EDD Program

Each month we lift up exceptional students in the Doctorate in Educational Leadership Program. As an Ed.D. program, we believe that field experience is integral to the journey toward becoming a 'Healer of Education.' Here we highlight the many ways our students take on new skills and build their experiences as leaders.

Community Builders

Erik Ramirez & Katie Clifford

This month we spotlight Erik Ramirez and Katie Clifford as Community Builders! Thank you to these two leaders in the EDD community who have gone above and beyond as builders, enriching their community, and the entire EDD experience.

Erik Ramirez, former DELSA President, and #HopeDealer (C14) is a true Community Builder. Erik is a person who continually builds connections with those around him and works to build up his community in turn. Erik recently co-organized an event for all of the current EDD students to connect with the incoming cohort and build deeper connections.
