"Games are broadly interdisciplinary. They encompass computer science, psychology, sociology, music, art, neuroscience, and more. They're what the liberal arts are all about. We teach our students to think across disciplines. They develop their ability to attack problems, ask productive questions, and invent fresh solutions."

"One of the things I learned when I started teaching Introduction to Engineering —and when I took the course myself—was that you have to fail. My mentor, Fred Hooven, used to say: 'Fail early and often' because you learn from every failure. You don't learn if you don't fail, and you're not learning if you're not guided to understand those failures."

"Dartmouth is a place where one can be valued as a complete person. I'm able to be a teacher-scholar here and bring my whole self to the task. It's due partly to the smallness of the place and to the fact that Dartmouth is fundamentally a liberal arts college but also a major research university."

"The Dartmouth campus exudes a far greater sense of warmth than I've experienced anywhere else. Students help one another. They crave and foster community. They're fun. I enjoy spending time with them. I have ongoing conversations in my head, thinking of things they've said and the things I want to say when next we meet. "

"I enjoy guiding students on the path to discovery, whether it be undergrads with their first exposure to astronomy or Ph.D. students completing a thesis that makes a major contribution to the field. Dartmouth provides a unique opportunity for faculty who love working with undergraduates, but who also seek to carry out a world-class research program."

"The student experience is much more multifaceted than I ever understood as a faculty member and even as a house professor. As a social psychologist who's been interested in inequality, group interactions, well-being, and identity, I feel like I'm doing applied social psychology every day. It's a lot of fun."
