“Such rankings are a reflection of the quality faculty who have created and teach within the five specializations and the Educational Leadership Ed.D. program as a whole,” said Dr. Lee Nabb, professor of adult and higher education. “These gifted faculty members constantly work to keep the curriculum current, with the right balance of regional pertinence and national relevance – fostering student appeal on both levels – to develop effective, positive leaders capable of confidently guiding education into the future.”
