Carl Glickman has returned to The University of Georgia as Scholar-in-Residence to teach and to collaborate on school based work and policy studies in the Program in Educational Administration and Policy. He began his education career in 1968 as a Teacher Corps intern in the rural south, has been a principal of award winning schools, and has held appointments in departments of Curriculum and Supervision, Educational Leadership, and Foundations of Education. He was University Professor of Education and founder of the Georgia League of Professional Schools (a nationally validated network of K to 12 schools devoted to democratic learning of all students). In 1997, he received the highest faculty career award of the University for bringing, "stature and distinction" to its mission and students honored him as the faculty member who had "contributed most to their lives, inside and outside the classroom."
Carl is a founding member of the national policy center The Forum for Education and Democracy (www.forumforeducation.org) and he serves on the steering committee of the national Campaign for the Civic Mission of Schools (http://www.civicmissionofschools.org/), co-chaired by Sandra Day O’Connor. Carl is the author of 13 books on school leadership, educational renewal, and the moral imperative of education. Super-Vision and Instructional Leadership, co-authored with Steve Gordon and Jovita Ross-Gordon (2006), is in its seventh edition and remains a leading text in the field. Leadership for Learning was recognized as one of the four outstanding education books of 2002. His 2003 book, Holding Sacred Ground: Leadership, Courage, and Endurance in Our Schools, has been acclaimed as one of the most important writings in education today and his edited book, Letters to the Next President: What We Can Do About the Real Crisis in Public Education, was chosen by Foreword Magazine as one of the two outstanding books in education for 2004. The new 2008 presidential election of Letters to...was released this fall.
Carl’s in progress book tentatively titled, Leadership for the Awakening of American Education, is expected to be in press in the fall of 2009.
