"All my life I had heard that EIU was the best school for education majors, so it was very enticing for me to go there! My parents both went to EIU as well and had nothing but positive things to say about EIU. I am so glad that I have spent my college career at EIU and it truly feels like my home away from home."Melanie DionClass of 2026, Elementary Education, Middle Level Endorsement in Science
