What's the most inspiring part of your job?
Hearing about and supporting the heroic efforts of teachers and others who are reviving classical eduation around the country.

Favorite classical quote:
"One ought not... to think only about human things because one is a human being, nor only about mortal things because one is mortal, but rather to make oneself immortal, insofar as that is possible, and to do all that bears on living in accord with what is the most excellent of the things in oneself." (Aristotle, Ethics)
