Dedicated to training educators who will serve as ethical and humane social critics in their educational communities, the Doctoral Program in Educational Policy and Leadership at Hofstra University produces outstanding graduates. Taking its goal as social transformation, the program has an approach to education more visionary than that of simply training competent teachers. Its graduates are trained to develop critical and reflective habits in order to evaluate both organizational and individual effectiveness in the educational realm. As experts in educational leadership, graduates take a proactive approach to defining new transformative possibilities.
Amy Kenton, a Hofstra graduate, has expanded the leadership education she received to students as well. Completing a dissertation in 2012 on youth leadership development, she has identified a transformative possibility that extends Hofstra’s emphasis on leadership to youth. Kenton’s experience prior to her graduation from Hofstra included 15 years of teaching and seven years of administrative responsibilities.
