Greetings!
Last year, we congratulated teachers for their commitment and fortitude after facing a spring full of sudden and drastic change. Today, we recognize them for their perseverance, continually adapting to and surmounting challenges stemming from a full academic year of hybrid learning. Below, we spotlight two such extraordinary teachers, yet we applaud them all for working so hard this year.
As the CEEE celebrates its 50th year of empowering educators and students with the tools for economic, financial, and lifelong success, we also honor our founding director with a fund created in his name. The James B. O’Neill CEEE Faculty and Staff Support Fund will provide financial stability so that we can continue to adapt and reshape our programming for the next 50 years! We are grateful for all who have already given so generously and welcome others who may still wish to do so.
Like us, Professor O’Neill is most proud of the creation and launch of the Master of Arts in Economics and Entrepreneurship for Educators degree program, the only one of its kind in the world—which graduated its 20th cohort over the holiday weekend. We congratulate this current cohort of master educators who weathered their own remote learning this past summer, and we welcome a new cohort who began online study last month.
As we look forward to the end of another successful academic year, we wish you a strong and rewarding finish, and a relaxing and hopeful summer. Thanks for all you do!
Onward,
