This episode offers a compelling look into the life and thinking of one of Yale College's key administrators, Andrew Forsyth. Join podcast host, Darice Corey, as she engages in a rich, illuminating discussion with Andrew, Associate Dean and Chief of Staff at Yale College.
In this conversation, Andrew reflects on the intrinsic value of academic exploration and the serendipitous, deeply enriching discoveries to be made while plumbing the contents of library shelves. He candidly shares his journey from the historic city of Glasgow to the prestigious corridors of Yale, where he now plays a pivotal role in shaping the institution's strategic initiatives and fostering a sense of belonging among the college community.
Andrew also expounds on his approach to teaching, informed by a steadfast commitment to inclusivity and responsiveness to the diverse learning styles of his students. Beyond the classroom and administrative functions, he provides personal insights into his motivation for pursuing a Ph.D. in religious studies, and how academic recognition and adversities – such as the inability to travel due to world events – have impacted his professional trajectory.
This episode delves into Andrew's thoughtful musings on leadership, the relevance of human connections in our academic and professional lives, and his active engagement with local cultural organizations. He also discusses his recently published work on the interplay between common law and natural law in America, marking another scholarly milestone in his distinguished career.
