OFFICE OF EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH
The Office of Educational Outreach (OEO) was established in 1998 as a unit of the Office of the Dean to provide assistance to members of the faculty and staff of the College of Education at Indiana State University, and to personnel in schools and related agencies in the Terre Haute metropolitan area.
Working closely with the Office of Educational Research and Evaluation, the OEO serves as a clearinghouse and catalyst for interdepartmental, intercollege, interinstitutional, and interorganizational collaborations. From inspiration to reality, the OEO seeks to enhance the outreach activities in the College of Education.
