Dr. Keith Mock
Associate Vice President, Enrollment Management Solutions at Liaison International
Dr. Claxton is a wonderful and compassionate leader. She is always on the cutting edge of research and has literally ‘written the book’ on how to conduct applied research in education. In fact, she’s written several editions of it! Whether in person or speaking through her writings, she provides clear and succinct direction for students and faculty members alike. Without a doubt, she has been one of the most influential mentors I have ever had, and I am incredibly thankful to be her as a friend and colleague.
