Daniel Gardner
M.Ed. in Higher Education
Through my undergraduate career at Virginia Tech, I developed an interest in the field of recreational sports administration and the role campus recreation plays in student development, retention, and success at college. Having obtained a Bachelor of Arts in History in the summer of 2011, I matriculated to the William and Mary Graduate School of Education and enjoyed learning about the history of higher education and other topics during my first year in the program. Working as the Graduate Assistant of Intramural Sports allowed me to apply diverse classwork - ranging from student development theory to law in higher education - in professional practice.
