Our guest today is Dr. Angela Sims, the President of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School. Dr. Sims is the first woman President of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, she's the first President to lead the school at its new location, and she's also the first black woman President to lead any Rochester area college. Some of you might remember Dr. Rebecca Basinger from an earlier episode. As I was finishing up the conversation with Rebecca that day, I asked her for the names of a couple of people that she thought would make an interesting guest. Dr. Sims was at the top of her list.
