We have a moral obligation to help all students reach their full potential as workers, as citizens, and as human beings.
We need to markedly alter the way learning occurs in our schools. That transformation will require a new commitment to research, to professional preparation, and to ongoing professional development.
Transformation is within our reach when we see diversity in our student population and English Language Learners as an asset rather than a burden.
Transformation is within our reach if Congress can reach consensus for students. …and put more resources in education research to match the political rhetoric about research-based practices.
Transformation is within our reach as Oregon reinvests in education from preschool through graduate school
PSU’s Graduate School of Education holds four accreditations: NCATE, CORE, CACREP, and NAEYC
Transformation is within our reach when policy and business leaders join hands with education leaders across the age spectrum to address our challenges and opportunities.

Field Experience Changes • Students “clustered” in schools to create “learning communities”. • More time in schools and more supervision. • Support to better engage GSE faculty in the schools and P-12 teachers with GSE. • Partnerships for mutual benefit and improvement.
Degrees awarded increased 98% from 1999 to 2007 despite the very higher tuition for graduate students, highest among our peer institutions. GSE produced 12% of all degrees at PSU in 2006-2007. GSE produced 38% of all masters degrees.
Thirty-eight percent of all graduate degrees awarded by PSU are from the GSE.

“Where the rubber meets the road is in the classroom.” Preston Pulliam President, PCC Member, Board of Higher Education
“I believe strongly in the mission of the Graduate School of Education, and in the necessity of social justice education. By becoming a high school teacher I hope to have a direct impact on the young people I teach, helping them to see their own worth along with the value of community engagement and collective action, and its potential to make the world a better place.” Brian Hanson Recipient of a Janette Drew Scholarship Secondary Dual Educator Program
“I know from the bottom of my heart that my autistic brother’s life today would be more productive and fulfilling if he had been given access to his peers and community while he was growing up and receiving his education.
