N2 - The Rowan University (RU) Professional Development School’s (PDS) network was created to foster school-university partnerships that reflected a commitment to nurture and sustain close connections between P–12 schools and higher education with a focus on teacher preparation, ongoing professional development of pre- and in-service teachers, student learning and research. (National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education, 2001). RU, formerly Glassboro State College, is located in southern New Jersey (NJ) and is a comprehensive public research university with an R2 Carnegie Research Classification. Glassboro State College, founded in 1923, was initially established as a Normal School. RU has grown to 14 colleges and schools with both undergraduate and graduate programs, and has a student body of over 19,000, which is predominately White (63%). The College of Education (CED) at RU has stayed true to its beginnings as a Normal School with the CED remaining one of the largest colleges in the university.
