Education

The Minor

The Education Minor is intended to give students a balance of theory and practice while preparing future teachers to think critically on matters of schooling, teaching and education broadly constructed. Students interested in careers in education should take EDUC 120 Foundations of Education early in their Earlham careers. In addition, students thinking about teaching in public schools need to consider their major carefully because some disciplines and majors are not accepted by "4+1" graduate programs designed toward certification.
