A native of Lewisburg, Josi Ervin is majoring in Health Science, with a goal to attend PA school. Josi has always worked hard to be successful in school, and she loves all of her Concord professors. She plays on the Concord softball team, and is a Bonner scholar. In the summer of 2024, she worked as a youth camp counselor in Greenbrier County as part of her Bonner scholarship experience. She says of the experience, “I absolutely loved working there as I got to watch kids come in and have the week of their life! They get to come in and really just be kids with no other worries. I really felt like it made a difference as I got to serve others all summer!” When asked about her most memorable experience at CU, she mentions a time when the campus was covered in snow, and everyone went sledding in the valley. She’s been a member of 4-H since she was 8 years old, and has played sports all of her life.

Assistant Professor of Education
Dr. Bean is excited to be part of Concord’s Education Department, working with students he describes as respectful and ready to learn. One lesson Dr. Bean and our other faculty members teach Concord students is the reality of the profession. Through a variety of placements and teaching opportunities, or “in the fire” opportunities as Dr. Bean describes them, our students are prepared to enter the field. “I have a passion for education. I see how that can open doors and create opportunities.”
