Cultivating moral and intellectual virtues in two core courses in teacher education is the focus of a $149,964 grant awarded to UNI College of Education faculty by the Kern Family Foundation.
A new partnership between the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) and Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) aimed at helping location-bound students in Des Moines earn a college degree through UNI received a $1 million boost this week thanks to the generosity of UNI alumni.
The gift from David and Karen Takes will help fund support for UNIBusiness students and the college's mascot program, as well as future capital projects.
