St. John's College Tutor David Townsend Wins AGLSP Faculty Award
In mid-June, the Association of Graduate Liberal Studies Programs (AGLSP) honored longtime St. John’s tutor David Townsend with its annual faculty award: a recognition of superb faculty who teach and inspire students both within and outside the classroom. With his dedication to the liberal arts and his devotion to becoming what Stringfellow Barr called a “citizen of the world,” Townsend certainly meets the criteria. Fittingly, he considers the recipient—himself—the least important part of the deal.
