Faculty

Supportive, intelligent, dedicated, accessible, well-prepared and open. Ask Cushing students to describe their teachers and these are the adjectives that are repeated again and again. Because Cushing faculty members teach, coach, advise and live in the dormitories, they develop nurturing relationships with students that extend far beyond the classroom.
