Dr. Cindy Reed Selected as Juror for International Award

November 2010

Dr. Cindy Reed, director of the Truman Pierce Institute, recently served as a juror for the Brock International Prize in Education program administered by the University of Oklahoma.

Reed, a professor in the Department of Educational Foundations, Leadership and Technology, was one of nine jurors who helped determine the 2011 Brock Laureate. Each juror, nationally known themselves, nominated a candidate, prepared a nomination portfolio, and made presentations about their candidate. Reed is nationally recognized for her expertise in leadership development and educational reform. She serves as a commissioner on the Alabama Select Commission on High School Retention and Drop Out Prevention and is Executive Editor of The Professional Educator. Reed nominated Dr. David Mathews, CEO of the Charles Kettering Foundation in Dayton, Ohio. Unfortunately, her nominee did not win this year’s Brock Prize, but all jurors agreed that the Laureate selected was an excellent choice.
