Congratulations to Dr. Samantha Steinman, graduate of our program, for beginning her role as Director of Student Support Services (SPED Director) in Mankato Area Public Schools. We are excited to have such a great school psychologist managing local supports for students. We are also fortunate to have Dr. Steinman teach courses for our doctoral program as an adjunct professor. She's always been a hard worker and a consummate professional. Well earned, Dr. Steinman!
