College of Education
A New Institute For 21st Century Schools
For Bill (’41) and Ida Friday, improving education is not just a fleeting conversation topic. It’s a deep-rooted passion. The Fridays know first-hand that feeding students’ thirst for knowledge and curiosity guarantees our state’s long-term economic, cultural and social well-being. In short, fueling a child’s learning on multiple levels has a far-reaching impact on the community at large.
