She received her B.A. in Elementary Education in 1959 from George Washington University, her M.S. in Special Education from Syracuse in 1965 and her Ph.D. in Special Education (with a minor in Human Development) in 1970 from University of Maryland.","She taught at the University of Maryland from 1968 to 1970, Southern Connecticut State University from 1970-1972, Northern Illinois University from 1972-1974, and Indiana University during the summer of 1975. Her career at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) began in 1974, when she was hired as an assistant professor in VCU's School of Education. She was the director at the Reading and Child Study Center from 1981-1983. Lokerson retired in 1996 but continued to teach at VCU as a professor emerita.","Dr. Elise Blankenship, who also studied at Syracuse, came to VCU around the same time as Lokerson.

Blankenship and Lokerson lived, published, presented, and worked together throughout their 50 years of knowing one another.","Jean, who had muscular dystrophy, dedicated herself towards improving the lives and education of others with disabilities through her work at VCU, and through her professional service. Organizations that Jean was heavily involved with and took on leadership roles include: Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and the Division of Learning Disabilities (CEC-DLD), the Learning Disabilities Association of America (LDA), and the National Joint Committee on Learning Disabilities (NJCLD).

As a child, Jean taught her younger siblings, David, Doris, Donald and Robert, in what her father called the \"Lokerson Family School\" set up in the basement of her childhood home (Richmond Times Dispatch, 2016). She received her B.A. in Elementary Education in 1959 from George Washington University, her M.S. in Special Education from Syracuse in 1965 and her Ph.D. in Special Education (with a minor in Human Development) in 1970 from University of Maryland.","She taught at the University of Maryland from 1968 to 1970, Southern Connecticut State University from 1970-1972, Northern Illinois University from 1972-1974, and Indiana University during the summer of 1975. Her career at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) began in 1974, when she was hired as an assistant professor in VCU's School of Education. She was the director at the Reading and Child Study Center from 1981-1983. Lokerson retired in 1996 but continued to teach at VCU as a professor emerita.","Dr. Elise Blankenship, who also studied at Syracuse, came to VCU around the same time as Lokerson. Together, Blankenship and Lokerson were known as leaders in teacher (and parent) education on understanding and working with children with learning disabilities (School of Education, undated). Blankenship and Lokerson lived, published, presented, and worked together throughout their 50 years of knowing one another.","Jean, who had muscular dystrophy, dedicated herself towards improving the lives and education of others with disabilities through her work at VCU, and through her professional service. Organizations that Jean was heavily involved with and took on leadership roles include: Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and the Division of Learning Disabilities (CEC-DLD), the Learning Disabilities Association of America (LDA), and the National Joint Committee on Learning Disabilities (NJCLD). She continued volunteering her time and expertise with many of these organizations after her retirement from VCU.","Jean Lokerson died at the age of 79 on November 7, 2016.","\nMore information about Jean E.
