The Center for Character and Citizenship in the College of Education at UMSL held its annual Summer Institute in Character Education June 3-7. More than 30 educators from various states, including four from Colegio Los Nogales in Bogota, Colombia, attended the weeklong character education training run by Marvin Berkowitz, the Sanford N. McDonnell Endowed Professor of Education at UMSL. At the end of each day, participants are paired up and ask to give daily reflections on what they learned.
