I had the recent privilege of doing what I would consider an exclusive interview with Wiley College President Herman Felton for Episode 19 of the Higher Education Leadership Foundation’s ‘Forethoughts of our Founders’ podcast. I call it exclusive because I rarely do interviews about myself, and rarely talk for more than 90 minutes in any given setting. But I’m exceedingly glad that I did so here and I hope it provides insight into why the Digest was created, what I aspire to do with the Digest, and why I tend to argue with Kappas.
