Sean Klippel is an educator and a member of the LGBTQ+ community who was recently honored for his research as part of Rockhurst's Doctorate in Education program. Klippel's project, "How K-12 Teachers Perceive a State Bill and LGBTQ+ Affirming Curriculum," earned him a Rockhurst Outstanding Research Award (RORA) as part of the University's Festival of Student Achievement.
In the following Q & A, Klippel explains why he's passionate about the project, as well as why it's so important now:
Some students go to college undecided on a major, and that鈥檚 just fine. Others, like 2016 Rockhurst graduate Kaitlin Doyle, know exactly what they want to do.
Doyle鈥檚 mother grew up as a child of a deaf adult (CODA) and Kaitlin had an uncle who had cerebral palsy and spent a lot of time in therapy. She saw how her grandparents took care of him and guided him through everyday tasks.
That sparked her interest in the field of occupational therapy.

There鈥檚 a phrase used in Costa Rica that means pure life: 鈥淧ura Vida.鈥 It can mean hello and good-bye, much like 鈥淎loha鈥 in Hawai鈥檌, but it also means being centered in mind, body and spirit.
The phrase meant so much to new 射精视频 professor and frequent Costa Rica visitor Missy Ling that she had it tattooed on her inner wrist years ago.
Every year Ling traveled to Costa Rica to live 鈥淧ura Vida,鈥 but inevitably and understandably returned to her corporate job and reality in Kansas City. She was a Chief Financial Officer in her later days in the business world, so she鈥檇 cover up her Pura Vida tattoo with a Band-Aid so it wouldn鈥檛 be seen in the boardroom.
