💙 We are proud to celebrate two ELPS Ph.D. students for contributing chapters to the book, Black Doctoral Students’ Experiences in Academia: Narratives of Collective Responsibility, Community, and Care.

📖 Newly minted Dr. Dawn Jenkins authored Chapter 5, Black Mothers in Pursuit of the Ph.D.: Redefining Success and Achievement Beyond Academic Metrics, exploring how Black motherhood, scholarship, and identity shape new definitions of academic success.

🧡 Doctoral candidate Christian Scioneaux authored Chapter 9, To all the Academic Aunties, Uncles, and Cousins, highlighting the importance of community, care, and fictive kinship in supporting Black doctoral students throughout their journeys.

Their scholarship reflects the power of storytelling, community, and transformative leadership in higher education. Congratulations on this incredible accomplishment!

🧡We are so proud to highlight the incredible work happening through the NSF-IUSE grant, Enhancing Preparation of Bilingual Science Teachers: Linking Pedagogical Content Knowledge to a Cross-Linguistic Approach.

💙Over the past year, the leadership of Dr. Mojica, Dr. Forbes, Dr. Leon, Dr. Saenz, Dr. Mostacedo, and Brenda Costelo have worked alongside students to provide meaningful opportunities including summer internships and certification exam preparation support. Students recently completed their math preparation workshop and are continuing their journey with Science CORE 391 certification review sessions this semester.

🍎We are excited to continue supporting these future bilingual science educators and look forward to even more success stories in the fall!
