A message from the Dean of the College of Education
As we approach the Christmas season, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your dedication, professionalism, and care for our students and one another throughout the year. Your commitment makes our College strong, and I am deeply thankful for the many ways you contribute each and every day.
I hope this Christmas break offers you time to rest, renew, and reconnect with family, friends, and all that brings you joy and peace. May this season be meaningful and filled with hope, reflection, and gratitude.
I am always quick to tell anyone that my associate deans, faculty and staff are the finest at MBU.I couldn’t do what I do without each of you.
On behalf of the leadership team in the COE, I wish you a restful, meaningful, and blessed Christmas. May the New Year bring health, renewed purpose, and continued collaboration as we move forward together to serve our students – and each other.
-Dr. Tammy Cox
