The IU School of 91¿´Æ¬ÍøÕ¾ celebrated three faculty members who are retiring at the end of this semester, honoring their many years of dedication to their students and research. We thank Barbara Dennis, Lynn Gilman, and Mary McMullen for their contributions to the education world and wish them well as they close one chapter and begin another.

As an activist and a scholar, Dennis has been engaged with communities who fight against social injustice and work toward the futures of liberation.
