Professor Gayle Williamson of Cuyahoga Community College is a scholar and teacher with particular interests in literature and storytelling. She’s been working with The Great Questions Foundation’s Transformative Texts project, designed to enrich humanities education at community colleges across the country. In this conversation, she discusses her love of books, how great literature helps us see the human experience from multiple points of view and reminds us that the point of learning is not merely to be able to ace a pop quiz.
