“As a graduate of LC State's teacher education program who later hosted interns as a classroom teacher and building principal, I can attest that the graduates of the program come to us well prepared and with a strong love of teaching and learning. Within 30 miles of Lewiston we have two considerably larger colleges with teacher education programs, yet the candidates from LC State are consistently the best prepared for the teaching profession.” — Alex Church
