The Teachers College faculty work closely with and provide consultative services for the Hall of Fame Staff and Board of Directors. A beautiful and functional building was gifted by Lee and Marjorie Nelson to the Hall of Fame in 1992. It was dedicated in November of 1993. Within the building may be found inductee pictures and displays, the Donors' Gallery of Honored Educators, and the Donors' Wall of Fame along with other exhibits and displays. The museum and conference, resource, and telecommunications center are presently being conceptualized and designed.
Teachers affect eternity, no one can tell where their influence stops.
