<p>Rebecca Chopp not only taught Theology at Emory, she was Dean of the Theology School and then Provost of Emory University. From there, she became Dean of the Divinity School at Yale and then on to be the President of Colgate. Not bad for the first person in her family to go to college. She’s also Methodist minister, but went to grad school at Chicago when she was told that, as a woman, she would never be given a church.</p>
<p>I have been very impressed with her tenure at Swarthmore, so far. Terrific role model.</p>
