Volume 3, Issue 1 (2017)
Welcome
It is with great humility that I thank the editorial review board and the issue reviewers for their dedication, since the 2012 launching of the journal. Special thanks to my graduate assistant, Gena Mattocks, for her assistance with proofing and formatting. This issue contains a variety of research articles on public schools and higher education, ranging from best practices for students with autism, to leadership as department chair, to a historical perspective on work-related stress. Researchers leave a legacy for years, I am reminded of researchers such as John Ogbu and Erik Erickson. Although, they have both been gone for over a decade, their research is still cited in textbooks and discussed in psychology and education college classes across the country.-
I dedicate this issue to Dr. Argyrios Argyriou (1957-2017) who co-authored the article in this issue on Work-related Stress and Burnout Factors of Principals in Regional Greece. He was the Director of the Secondary Education Directorate of Western Attica, Greece, and Adjunct Professor of the tertiary School of Pedagogical and Technological Education and of Athens University of Economics & Business, Greece. Being an eminent civil educator, he will be missed by his colleagues and associates. Enjoy this article and others in this issue, and again thanks for continuing to support the journal

Rest in Peace, Dr. Argyriou (†)
