My Background
Born and raised in Smithfield, North Carolina, I did my undergraduate work at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (health and physical education). In 1979, I moved to Texas and received a MEd from Lamar University and an EdD from the University of Houston (both in education) while serving as Assistant Coach for Women’s Volleyball. I completed one year of post-doctoral training at the University of Georgia (curriculum and instruction) and recently received a MA from Texas State University (professional counseling). I have been on the faculty at UT since 1986 and am currently a Professor of Health Education in the Department of Kinesiology and Health Education, College of Education. My teaching and research interests can be found at my web page, http://www.edb.utexas.edu/steinhardt/. Thus far my experience in conflict mediation has come primarily from my work as a psychotherapist, and as a consultant with such organizations as 3M, Motorola, Applied Materials, Dell, and the Army’s 4th Infantry Division at Fort Hood. At UT, I served both as a member and chair of the Faculty Grievance Committee. I am honored to serve the University as Faculty Ombudsperson. |
