One is an astrophysicist and the other is a life scientist. The first was instrumental in reforming and teaching the Elementary Physics 105 class. Through the efforts of the Co-Principal Investigators, the Provost, and the Science Council, NMHU has employed a professor to serve as the direct connection between the College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education. This professor has a dual appointment and is responsible for teaching content in the science department and methods at the School of Education. An invitation is sent to as many school districts within the northeast quadrant of the state as possible.
