A note in the Chronicle (Sept. 14, 2011) summarizes this report from the Special Education Faculty Needs Assessment project at Claremont Graduate University, "Assessing Trends in Leadership: Special Education’s Capacity to Produce a Highly Qualified Workforce." They suggest that, "Not enough people are getting Ph.D.’s in special education, which could result in a shortage of qualified special-education faculty members...one-half to two-thirds of special-education faculty will retire within the next five years, which could leave 300 students with disabilities underserved for each missing faculty member."
