"Teaching with Integrity in an Era of Standardization and Accountability"

Fredonia will host its first-ever Alumni Leadership Conference for the College of Education on July 18 and 19 on campus. Alumni, along with current faculty and emeritus professors, are invited to join us for this special event.
This Leadership Conference offers education alumni a chance to reconnect with each other and with faculty members; and to help the university shape the direction of its teacher preparation programs for the future.
This is an opportunity for SUNY Fredonia to engage its successful alumni by utilizing their experience in the field to enhance the institution as it continues to advance its mission of producing the best graduates possible.
