Dr. John T. Goeldi Future Teacher Endowed Scholarship
This scholarship was developed in
1998 by the students of the 1997–1998 Executive Board of the Student Education
Association at Illinois State University to recognize their faculty advisor,
John T. Goeldi. John was a teacher who cared about his students and the future
of education. He served as professor in the School of Teaching and Learning
(formerly the Department of Curriculum and Instruction) and as the director of
Clinical Experiences and Certification Processes for seven years. He offered
support and guidance to many future teachers, and this scholarship was created
to recognize his invaluable contributions and dedication to the organization.
