Marc Gagne


Department: Geology & Astronomy

I would like to serve on the Teacher Education Council because I believe that teacher training should remain one of the core missions of this university. I have been supervising student teachers in the B.S.Ed. Earth and Space Science, B.S.Ed. Physics, and post-bac certification programs since I arrived at WCU in 1999. I would like to serve on the TEC to (1) help raise the level of awareness among our undergraduates about careers in science and mathematics education and (2) encourage more faculty to participate in their department's B.S.Ed. program.

I would welcome the opportunity to serve on TEC. Prior to coming to West Chester I have 25 years of k-12 experience working and teaching in PA public schools. I believe this makes me a worthy candidate. Thank you.
