Over the summer, WashU announced that it will be discontinuing its teacher education program for all students matriculating in Fall 2025 and beyond. The Teacher Education program, which is housed in the education department but is separate from the more popular Educational Studies major, has struggled with dwindling enrollment and the high cost of hiring adjunct faculty members to teach specialized courses. Current sophomores, juniors, and seniors, however, will be able to finish their studies before the program is eliminated.
