Making Waves: Ann Ryan '85, Ph.D.

What does it mean to teach students not what to think, but how to think? In this episode of Making Waves, meet Dr. Ann Ryan '85, professor of English and director of the American Studies program at Le Moyne College. Through her teaching, mentorship, and scholarship, Dr. Ryan challenges students to examine the stories we tell about ourselves, our communities, and our nation. At Le Moyne, learning goes beyond the classroom. It's about asking deeper questions, exploring different perspectives, and preparing students to engage thoughtfully with the world around them.
