Rockbridge Teacher Education Consortium (RTEC) - Southern Virginia University Exchange

The Rockbridge Teacher Education Consortium (RTEC) is a cooperative effort led by Washington and Lee and including Southern Virginia University (SVU), through which students from W&L may take upper-level teacher-education classes at each institution. The purpose of this arrangement is to maximize the use of our respective teaching resources while offering the greatest amount of diversity in educational opportunity to our students. See the Exchange Agreement for details.
