Clifton Project

The CLIFTON Project is the most unique of all the NHRI projects. In CLIFTON, outstanding college juniors in the Teacher Education Program are paired with outstanding college freshmen who are majoring in education. This project began with an endowment from Dr. Donald Clifton, former CEO of the Gallup Organization, and will have research conducted on its participants for 100 years to see if this college mentoring experience impacts future classroom teaching.

Attention: CLIFTON Project Alums
Keeping in touch over the years allows the significances of CLIFTON Project participation to be documented and studied. Please update your contact information by emailing Dr. Margaret Macintyre Latta at: mlatta2@unl.edu.
