"Social Justice" Education Comes to the Fore at OISE (the Folks Who Teach Our Teachers)
The Department of Humanities, Social Sciences and Social Justice Education (HSSSJE) is a multi- and interdisciplinary graduate program developed from the past programs of History and Philosophy of Education as well as Sociology and Equity Studies in Education.
