making connections amongst Bethel students, Education Department alumni, Bethel faculty and departments, teacher educators and school administrators, and metro schools and districts.
helping others give back to the teaching profession by sharing knowledge and expertise, hosting student teaching placements, and attending events to earn CEUs.
