"After going through the NIU College of Education, I became a much more open-minded and accepting individual. The college has excellent professors who are knowledgeable and passionate about what they teach. They're dedicated to making you a well-rounded educator, and their dedication and passion toward their subjects inspires your imagination and creativity. I use so much of what I learned in college each day."by Dezirae Bruns, B.S.Ed., Elementary Education, First Grade Teacher, Glen Ellyn School District 41
