About Us
The Center began with an estate bequest in 1972 to support the operations of a reading clinic within the College of Education. The reading clinic was established in memory of Miss Belser’s sister, Dr. Danylu Belser, and Dr. Daisy Parton, both of whom were members of the College’s Elementary Education faculty. The Center ran as a reading clinic for almost two decades, initially directed by Dr. F. L. Westover. Read more about the Center.
