Meet Jewel, SJSU alumni / faculty and one of the leaders of Lurie College!

“San Jose State University was always my first choice for colleges because of its stellar teacher preparation program and affordability. I always had a dream to someday work at SJSU and enrolled again to complete my M.A. at the age of 57. After retiring after 38 years of teaching, I am now able to share my passion of teaching with aspiring individuals who understand the importance of equity in education to allow every student to be successful to pursue their own dreams.”

The Leaders of Lurie College series has been curated by Brian Cheung Dooley.
