#AEFP2025 has been quite a success. We're really proud of and excited by the work and thoughtful engagement in policy-relevant, rigorous research on display by all of our @buwheelock.bsky.social faculty, students, WEPC alumni, staff and partners. Thanks for a wonderful few days!
Thanks, Abby!
Ceci Rouse (my former boss at the CEA) is giving the @aefpweb.bsky.social keynote, including a history of federal student loans.
She notes that the whole system starts with the 1958 National Defense Education Act.
If only someone would write a paper on this. Oh wait, we just did!
Itβs a fun yet challenging project, and one of the most memorable parts was digitizing a lot of historical records. If youβre interested, come chat with me! #AEFP2025

It's not everyday that I wake up to a front page article in the Boston Globe featuring a colleague of mine, complete with photo shoot.
Today is that day! Fantastic coverage of the teacher workforce research that @oliviachi.bsky.social does here at BU Wheelock.

It was a pleasure meeting Dr. Peter Blair and hearing his insights! We got another selfie with @hanyuncui.bsky.social, @oliviakm.bsky.social, and other doc students and RAs at @wheelockpolicybu.bsky.social.
Boston crew at #SREE2024!
Many thanks to Drs. Giuseppe Migali and @colinpgreen.bsky.social for organizing everything and fostering a wonderful community. Also grateful to my fantastic advisor @joshgoodmanbu.bsky.social, who virtually introduced me to outstanding researchers before my journey to Italy.
Had an incredible time presenting my research with Dr. Marcus Winters on the effects of English learner reclassification at my first European conference IWAEE in late June! It was lovely catching up with old friend and mentors, and making new connections.
It's been an absolute pleasure working with such a dedicated and talented group of students. I'm truly honored to receive this beta hat!
Many thanks to my fantastic mentors and colleagues!!! See you in D.C. next year!
As a first-time presenter and second-time attendee at #AEFP2024, Iβm thrilled that our Wheelock Educational Policy Centerβs strong presence this year started with my collaboration with Dr. Olivia Chi on paraeducators and ended with my joint work with Dr. Marcus Winters on EL reclassification.
At our final Wheelock Ed Policy Center presentation of this conference, the audience applauds after PhD student Mingyan Ma announces this is her very first conference talk.
She crushed it. ππ
