Kelsie Brook Eckert ’13G: Engaging and Inspiring Students
Kelsie Brook Eckert ’13G is constantly pushing herself as a professor. Inspired by the eagerness of her students and the critical need to support teachers to build an educated citizenry, she is a champion for social studies education, which encompasses US history, world history, geography, economics, government, and behavioral sciences.
