Faculty at SHS Tampa
The School of Human Services has qualified professors who encourage those returning to school after an absence of academic life to embrace the principles of Humanics, community partnership, and academic excellence to achieve social and economic justice. SHS professors respect the knowledge and work experience each adult student brings to the classroom because it creates a positive atmosphere allowing everyone to learn from each other. |
