“I enjoy trying to get students to see the world in new and different ways. This often means challenging students' preconceived notions about their own world. I also enjoy working with students one-on-one or in small groups on some project. Students often report they learn more this way than they do in the classroom.”
“Students can make what they want of their education here at Wilkes. For students who want it, Wilkes can provide them with a superior educational opportunity. Wilkes students are often very career-oriented and want to be successful in the future. They are here to gain a meaningful student experience both in the classroom and out of the classroom.”
“I like Wilkes because it is small and private. Because of that, it’s flexible, agile and not encumbered by huge bureaucracy and other constraints that a state institution would. The administration is welcoming to our innovation. We can be forward thinking without being constrained by other interests.”
“The students here are eager to learn and they know they don’t know it all yet. I love to see their careers take off in new directions. I have one former student working as a terrorist expert with the CIA. I like to tell students to look for opportunities that will flip the switch for them, outside the classroom can do that just as much as inside.”
