The University of the Ozarks Pat Walker Teacher Education Program honored seven of its students recently with a pinning ceremony and educator commitment signing.
The event was held in the Munger-Wilson Chapel amphitheater and featured as keynote speaker the 2020 Arkansas Teacher of the Year, Joel Lookadoo.
The pinning ceremony is a symbolic, time-honored tradition marking the occasion when students are formally welcomed into the teacher education program. The newest inductees received a pin that signifies their association with the teaching education program as well as their new affiliation with the teaching profession.
