Gretchen Sauder

Although I love educating students, I believe the first step to being a great educator is personally engaging in ongoing learning and education.  I am currently working on my doctoral project, entitled Using an Academic Practice Partnership To Meet College and Community Health Needs.   The focus is to improve a college’s and its community’s health through improved access to holistic healthcare services.
