The ECS department has recruited a strong diverse faculty and an exceptional group of graduate students of diverse ethnicities. By building a vibrant, energetic and diverse department, we are able to enjoy an exciting intellectual climate that brings together the insights of many different research traditions and many different groups. We have a mix of scholars with overlapping research interests and strong disciplinary roots. One faculty member is an educational anthropologist (Donna Deyhle), one is an educational historian (Harvey Kantor), one is a cultural studies and educational anthropologist (David Quijada), four are educational sociologists (Leticia Alvarez, Dolores Delgado Bernal, Roderic Land, William Smith), two are curriculum researchers (Ed Buendia, Karen Johnson), two are educational philosophers (Audrey Thompson, Frank Margonis), one studies language and education (Veronica Valdez), and two study the education of Indigenous people (Donna Deyhle and Nola Lodge). Added to our research interests, our faculty bring together life experiences of African Americans, Latinas/os, American Indians, Jewish Americans, and European Americans.
