I have attended ULM for every degree that I have earned thus far. I think the atmosphere is one of this University's biggest draws.

My parents have always pushed the concept of family and building ties and at ULM the professors and staff know their students and they make efforts to forge relationships that aid in the learning process, unlike a larger university where you may be just a number in a class of hundreds. Everyone is friendly and personable, from the staff in the Student Union Building to the custodial employees in the various Halls and I have come to know them well and respect them greatly. My mother is actually getting her Ed.D from ULM right now as well. Seeing how much she values education makes me push to continue and strive for the highest levels of academia. This holds true for my siblings as well. All of us have attended or are currently attending ULM, I guess that truly makes us a family of Warhawks.

To me, obtaining my MEd through eULM means everything. The freedom that this degree program offers me is what I feel is the greatest aspect of this program. Working in Korea and being 15 hours ahead of the US means that I need the flexibility that eULM offers so I can complete my assignments at my earliest convenience. Working on my second master’s degree through eULM has opened my eyes greatly to the world of education and how varied it truly is. I am so happy to be learning about topics and concepts that I can use in real life as an educator myself. The Educational Technology and Leadership program is making me a better teacher for my students and that is more than I could ever ask for in my career. The end game for me is to obtain my Ph.D in Educational Psychology. I love children and learning so I feel that the education and experience that I have earned at ULM will help me tremendously in reaching my education goals.

If anyone is searching for an environment to foster thought and growth in their educational journey I would definitely tell them to consider attending ULM’s online program, eULM.
