“Helping Gustavus students develop their capacities for historical thinking—for making histories, or historical interpretations, through skilled and imaginative analysis of evidence from the past, and for seeing connections between past and present—is immensely gratifying. So too is inspiring them to be fully engaged in learning for life. For these reasons and more, I love professing history at Gustavus.”
