 * Why EHL:**

My commitment to EHL stems from its focus on human dignity, which I believe is directly linked to history education. In any time period or century, one can find examples of abuses of human dignity as well as those who worked to support and protect human dignity. I believe that by teaching students about episodes when human dignity was supported can provide powerful lessons in moral eduction and help to build more compassionate and caring local and global citizens.
