UTA's nationally-recognized College of Education has attracted another outstanding leader to Texas. Dr. Teresa Taber Doughty, associate dean of learning at Purdue University, was named the new dean of the college and will begin her tenure on August 1. Her arrival is an example of UTA's commitment to produce tomorrow's leaders in education and will further enhance the University's established relationships with P-12 schools around the country. UTA is leading the way in the state's 60x30TX initiative, and Dean Doughty's reputation will strengthen the University's role in national conversations about education. |
