Faces of Teaching

Teachers inspire students and shape their lives by acting as role models, educators, and friends.  In the most recent issue of The Independent Sector, cIcu’s seasonal newsletter, and here in our online gallery, we highlight just a few examples of the many powerful and lasting connections made in college classrooms every day.  The stories on the pages to follow, told from the perspectives of alumni, clearly illustrate how these Independent Sector educators practice and perfect the art of teaching.  To send us your story to add to those featured here, contact Dennis Kennedy (dennis@cicu.org; 518-436-4781).
