Dr. Hatch reflects on the current crisis of trust in institutions — from higher education to politics — and offers a nuanced perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing universities today. He shares personal stories of leadership, the importance of character formation in education, and why he remains hopeful about the role of faith in academia.
