About

The Educational Studies department is dedicated to building a better world through transformative education. By fostering a supportive and engaged community of scholars and learners, we address persistent challenges facing teachers, students, families, and educational leaders. Through rigorous research and partnerships with schools and communities, we work to improve educational systems—designing policies, practices, and environments that open doors for learners of all backgrounds.

Community donations directly advance this mission, supporting innovative research, meaningful learning experiences, and the development of future educational leaders. On Giving Blue Day, your gift helps us shape the future of education—from Michigan to the world.


Educational Studies Research & Public Scholarship Fund

This fund provides resources to Educational Studies faculty at Marsal Education to support their ongoing academic research and public scholarship efforts. Your support is welcomed for specific faculty projects.

Educational Studies Student Support Fund

This supports students, especially during difficult times. These funds have helped replaced stolen computers, purchased airfare to send a student home for a family funeral, helped a student avoid eviction, and paid for emergency health-care, as well as child-care. Your support allows students to critically reimagine and recreate the educational landscape and to contribute to a more democratic and just society.
