Hello friends and welcome to lessons from the dean. My name is Reid linot and for this podcast i interviewed my grandpa, friend and Mentor Dr. Jim Rhatigan. Known affectionately as “Dean Rhatigan” he spent his career at Wichita State University as the dean of students and later the senior vice president. During his career, he would become known as the heart of WSU, not only for his knowledge and insight, but also for his unconditional caring for the individual student. The hope of this podcast is to share his lessons and stories, I hope you enjoy!
