Place: The Nassau Club, 6 Mercer Street, Princeton, NJ
"RJ" Jenkins served as a Teaching Fellow in the Department of English at Harvard and as a Resident Tutor in Lowell House from 2006 to 2012. Those six years of section teaching and late-night dining hall conversations irrevocably transformed his understanding of what it means to teach, to mentor, and to be an undergraduate student at a place like Harvard.
He also learned a few of Harvard students' best kept secrets. Secrets he thinks will inspire us to change the way we teach our students, parent our children, run our businesses, and conduct ourselves as citizens in the world.
R.J. Jenkins earned his B.A. from Columbia College in 2003, his M.Litt. from the University of Cambridge (UK) in 2005, and will earn his Ph.D. in English from Harvard this spring. He currently works as an Assistant Dean of Students at Columbia University.
