SOE Instructor, Sydney Epps, PhD, Helps LSU Students Look & Feel Their Best Through Newly Launched Olinde Career Center Closet

The LSU Curriculum Theory Project is a community of internationally recognized scholars and intellectually vibrant students from a diversity of backgrounds whose primary goals are to research the role education plays in a democratic society and participate in the future of curriculum theory nationally and internationally. Curriculum Theory, as the interdisciplinary study of educational experience, aspires to understand educational practices within broad social and cultural frameworks, focusing on what counts as knowledge, and what knowledge is most valued, by whom, at what time, and for what purpose. Engaging experience, analysis and imagination, this field of scholarly inquiry seeks to articulate the significance of curriculum as lived and explore at the nexus of subject matter, society and self its generative possibilities.

The LSU Lutrill & Pearl Payne School of Education launched a new program, the Integrative Community Studies Program. The two-year certificate program, known as "LSU Community," is designed to provide adults with moderate disabilities with a life-changing university experience to improve independent living, competitive employment, and relationships. A significant number of Louisiana adults have intellectual or developmental disabilities (CDC). Included in that population are young adults who have exited public school special education programs for individuals with disabilities. LSU's Integrative Community Studies program joins eight other college and university programs in the state that will be providing supports to young adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities.
