CEHS Students Explore Italy
Xiao-lei Wang, PhD, the Ruth S. Ammon College of Education and Health Sciences dean, recently led a group of Adelphi students on a trip to Italy. In the video “Following in the Footsteps of Educational Thinkers,” Dean Wang said that, at the College, “We expand the classroom to the world.” CEHS students explored locations ranging from Rome and Pompeii to Florence, Pisa and Venice.

The Ammon Story
Learn about the Ruth S. Ammon College of Education and Health Sciences’ namesake, Ruth S. Ammon ’42, and her daughter Carol Ammon, MBA ’79.
In my 5th year, I was incredibly fortunate to be a part of the Mineola Residency Program where I was able to do a full year residency as my student teaching experience. It was an experience that greatly shaped the teacher that I am today. I was able to see the impact a dedicated educator can have on the lives of each of their students. At the end of my residency, I was lucky enough to be hired as a 6th grade Dual Language teacher at Mineola Middle School, which truly brought my experience full circle.
