Having the opportunity to encourage the next generation of leaders, and being included in a program with those that I have learned so much from – including Fr. Greg Pine, @jennfrey, Michael Gorman and Fr. Dominic Legge – is such a amazing privilege.

I was honored to speak at the @ThomisticInst's student leadership conference at @CatholicUniv. For me, this is an experience of coming full circle. In just 2018, I was one of those student leaders, starting a chapter of TI at @uarizona.

Just devastating. Hard to understand this decision from an academic standpoint, and I suspect that the ultimate reasons had little to do with purely academic considerations. @utulsa has prematurely terminated a new and exciting endeavor in academia.
Now for some personal news: today is my last day as Dean. I was stunned to be informed by our new provost there will no longer be a Dean of Honors, period. Nor an Assistant Dean. Rather, I was told there will be a “director” of honors--but that person will not be me. (12/21).

and without the support of Michael Weber, @BrandonWarmke, Jeff Carroll, Spencer Case, Mickey Lorkowski, Sam Morkal-Williams, @kvallier, Debbie O'Malley, Cole and Kd James, and many others, it would have been an almost impossible task.

While this is exciting for us, it is also bittersweet. Our time at @bgsu was too short, and we have experienced nothing but encouragement in a time when we very much needed it as new parents. We moved when Laura was 8 months pregnant and in the middle of writing a dissertation,.
