Susan Finkel-Hoffman, Ed.D. is the interim director of outreach for the Department of Special and Early Childhood Education at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, and a coordinator for the Northern Arapaho Teacher Education Program. In this memior Finkel-Hoffman, recalls the journey of a group of teacher education students which began almost 10 years ago, from Wind River Tribal College (WRTC) in Ethete as they embarked on this licensure journey, and encountered many adventures along the way. The adventures, and the lessons learned along the way, provide insight into the design of collaborative programs supporting teacher licensure for Native populations.
