Students in the BSE Social Sciences program recently welcomed a panel of NHHS seniors into a Methods for Teaching Social Studies course for an engaging and insightful discussion.
The seniors shared honest perspectives on what they wish their teachers knew—sparking meaningful conversations with our teacher candidates about the importance of building authentic relationships in the classroom.

Adding to the impact, several of the seniors were former students of Mrs. Dice—creating a meaningful full-circle connection that highlights the lasting influence of strong teacher-student relationships.

Experiences like this reflect our program’s strong focus on trauma-informed practices and preparing future educators to create supportive, connection-driven learning environments for all students.

Your legacy isn’t just your research, but the students you have taught and mentored throughout the way. After 49 legendary years dedicated to Emporia State University and its students, Dr. Steve Catt is leaving the classroom podiums and entering retirement 🎉

We wish your next chapter will be as rich and rewarding as the wisdom you’ve shared with us over the years. 💛🖤
