Zucker Family School of Education

The Citadel’s Zucker Family School of Education and Clemson University are working together to help students earn a Doctorate of Education.

With a focus on alternative learning systems, the Zucker Family School of Education is now offering a new graduate degree to better serve educators.

Hundreds of K-12 teachers in South Carolina will be better prepared to educate students in the fall after learning new techniques through the STEM Center.

Rev. Karen Lewis Crawford, CGC Class of 2004, became the first African American woman ordained in the South Carolina Wesleyan Church last fall.

“A lot of the research kind of gets thrown out at this point,” said Evan Ortlieb, Ph.D., incoming dean of education at The Citadel.

Social studies teacher and Citadel Graduate College alumna Leslie Sullivan was surprised at Palmetto Scholars Academy with a $25,000 Milken Educator Award.

Evan Ortlieb, Ph.D., will become Dean of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel.
