Class of 2026: Ready to Teach

In this special season finale of Inside Hopkins, Dr. Rhoda Mhiripiri-Reed hosts her final episode with a conversation that looks toward the future. She sits down with four graduating seniors who are all pursuing careers in education, exploring what inspired their paths and the unique skills they bring to the profession. In a meaningful role reversal, the students also turn the microphone on Dr. Mhiripiri-Reed, asking for her insights and reflections as she closes out her time in Hopkins.

Guests:

Pacey Johnson – University of North Dakota – Special Education

Rosalyn Gudmundson – Normandale Community College – Special Education

Emily Beaverson – University of Wisconsin-Madison – Elementary Education

Gabrielle Brown – North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University – Child Development and Family Studies
