Two of the thirty-nine books of the Old Testament mention Satan. Nineteen of the twenty-seven books of the New Testament do. Something happened in between, and almost nobody in the pews knows what it was. In this episode, Dr. Ryan Stokes takes us back to the oldest texts, where the word we translate as Satan is not a name at all. It is a noun. And it does not mean accuser. It means attacker. Executioner. The one God sends to carry out judgment.That changes everything downstream. In Numbers 22, the figure standing in Balaam's road with a drawn sword, described with this exact word, is the angel of the Lord himself. In Zechariah 3, the scene everyone calls a courtroom may not be a trial at all, but a priest in filthy clothes about to be killed for entering God's presence wrong. And in Job, for the first time in recorded history, this executioner turns on an innocent man. Dr. Stokes walks us through how the figure who once served Yahweh became the enemy of Yahweh, and he does it without flinching from the hard questions or overselling what the evidence can bear.Dr. Ryan Stokes is Associate Dean of the School of Biblical and Theological Studies at Carson-Newman University, where he teaches on the Bible and its ancient Jewish context. He earned his Ph.D. at Yale University and previously taught at Yale Divinity School, Western Kentucky University, and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is the author of The Satan: How God's Executioner Became the Enemy, published by Eerdmans and translated into Italian. He is also an ordained Baptist minister who has pastored churches in Connecticut and Kentucky.In this episode you will learn:Why the Hebrew word satan is not a name and never means "prosecuting attorney" in the Old TestamentHow the angel of the Lord is called a satan in Numbers 22 while carrying out God's judgmentWhy Zechariah 3 may be an execution scene rather than a courtroom, and how Isaiah 6 unlocks itThe case that the Satan material in Job 1 and 2 was added to an older version of the storyWhy Job's friends never mention Satan even once, and what that silence suggestsHow the Book of Jubilees and Second Temple Judaism reshaped the figure into the Prince of MastemaWhat Paul actually means when he tells the Corinthians to hand a man over to SatanWhy Revelation 12 is a defeat story rather than an origin story, and how the victory is wonWhy Dr. Stokes says the Satan that should frighten you is not God's enemy but God's agentWhat we lose when we flatten this figure into a cartoon villain with horns and a pitchforkGuest:Dr. Ryan StokesThe Satan: How God's Executioner Became the Enemy (Eerdmans): https://www.amazon.com/Satan-Gods-Executioner-Became-Enemy/dp/0802872506Faculty page: https://www.cn.edu/people/ryan-stokes/Published articles and essays: https://cn.academia.edu/RyanStokesStay Connected:Johnnyova.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaThe Revelation Reset: https://a.co/d/hiUkW8H

At the Collaborative Clinical Trials meeting in Prato, Italy, Mike Grocott and co-host Mark Priestley speak with Sachin Kheterpal, University of Michigan Medical School's Associate Dean for Research Information Technology and the Robert B Sweet Professor and Kelley M. Kidwell, Chair of the Department of Anesthesiology and Professor of Biostatistics at the University of Michigan School of Public Health and Senior Associate Dean for Faculty Affairs . Kidwell explains sequential multiple assignment randomized trials (SMART) as multi-stage designs that randomize at key decision points to evaluate treatment sequences, distinguishing them from adaptive trials and addressing misconceptions about sample size. Kheterpal describes the University of Michigan–led Multi-Center Perioperative Outcomes Group (MPOG), contrasting EHR-based automated extraction and individual provider feedback with manually collected programs like NSQIP, and discussing alignment with AQI/NACOR and inspiration from UK National Audit Projects to improve documentation for future inference. They note emerging use of large language models to extract outcomes from free-text notes, discuss pragmatic trial designs including THRIVE, and emphasize the value of close statistician–clinician collaboration and scientific humility, highlighting a BMJ talk on countering misinformation.

What I've learned as associate dean at UC San Diego and department chair at University of Rochester. I recently sat down with a colleague, Emily, for an interview tied to her doctoral research on leadership in higher education. Specifically, the pathways and training that prepare faculty to lead. Her work centers on three questions: how department chairs and program directors describe their preparation for leadership, what challenges they encounter navigating faculty management, communication, and administrative work, and what training or support they find most helpful for success. What follows are my responses, drawn from my own experience as a department chair.My name is Darren Lipomi, professor and chair, Department of Chemical and Sustainability Engineering, University of Rochester.

Vidhya Prakash, MD, FACP, FIDSA, FAMWA, Chief Medical Officer and Associate Dean of Clinical Affairs and Population Health at Southern Illinois University (SIU) School of Medicine, joins host Mike Sacopulos for a candid conversation about her AAPL-published book, The Leadership Learning Curve: A Woman Physician's Journey as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Prakash traces her path from an immigrant childhood in Cincinnati through infectious diseases, Air Force service, and hospital executive leadership. She speaks candidly about imposter phenomenon, adaptive versus technical problem-solving, and leadership lessons from military service, while also describing her role in founding the Alliance for Women in Medicine and Science (AWIMS) at SIU, a grassroots initiative that has measurably improved faculty promotion and tenure equity. Listeners will hear practical guidance on balancing clinical practice with executive responsibility; distinguishing adaptive from technical leadership; treating leadership as both an art and a practice; reframing failure; applying Air Force leadership principles of integrity, service before self, and excellence in all we do; and helping more physicians, especially “accidental leaders,” step into leadership roles.

I rendimenti obbligazionari globali sono tornati al livello più alto dal 2008, alimentati dall'aumento dei prezzi del petrolio, che ha suscitato timori riguardo all'inflazione e spinto gli investitori ad aumentare le aspettative di rialzi dei tassi d'interesse. Il trend è iniziato venerdì scorso, ricorda Bloomberg, dopo che il presidente della Federal Reserve, Kevin Warsh, ha ribadito la sua promessa di domare finalmente l'inflazione, che resta elevata, ed è proseguito questa settimana con l'aumento dei prezzi dell'energia a seguito dei nuovi raid in Medio Oriente. Il rendimento sui titoli di Stato giapponesi a 10 anni ha toccato il 3% per la prima volta dal 1996, i rendimenti dei titoli di Stato britannici a 30 anni hanno raggiunto il livello più alto dal 1998 e il tasso dei Treasury a 10 anni, negli Stati Uniti, ha toccato livelli che non si vedevano dal gennaio 2025. Ne parliamo con Angelo Drusiani esperto di mercato valutario ed obbligazionario e Giuliano Noci, Prorettore del Polo territoriale cinese del Politecnico di Milano. Pnrr, luce e ombre. Spendere non basta, la vera sfida è adessoSi è chiusa ieri la fase di attuazione delle riforme e degli investimenti previsti dai Piani nazionali di ripresa e resilienza (Pnrr) europei. Da oggi le azioni intraprese dagli Stati Ue non potranno più essere prese in considerazione dalla Commissione nella valutazione delle richieste di pagamento, compresi i pagamenti sospesi, e non potranno essere adottate altre modifiche. Approfondiamo il tema con Carlo Altomonte, Associate Dean e Direttore PNRR Lab, SDA Bocconi, e membro CD Fondazione M&M.

Pregnancy and infancy are critical periods in children's development and are also the most economically vulnerable times for families. Rx Kids is a public health initiative addressing this dilemma for families in Michigan with a bold approach: It gives moms $1,500 during pregnancy and $500/month for their baby's first six months-no strings attached. Announced in early July, Cleveland has been selected as the first expansion site outside of Michigan.rnrnFounded by Dr. Mona Hanna and Luke Shaefer, Ph.D., Rx Kids is the nation's first-ever community-wide prenatal and infant cash prescription program. Launched in 2024 and serving more than 15,000 families, the public health intervention is built upon the principle of trusting mothers. It focuses on improving birth outcomes, increasing food and housing stability, and providing every child a healthy start in life. Now, a new study has found that neonatal mortality-the death of an infant within the first 28 days of life-fell by nearly 50% in Flint following the launch of Rx Kids.rnrnDr. Mona Hanna is the Director of Rx Kids and Associate Dean for Public Health at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. In 2026, Dr. Hanna was named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in Health for her work leading Rx Kids. She was also named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World and recognized as one of USA Today's Women of the Century for her role in uncovering the Flint water crisis and leading recovery efforts.

China is ageing faster than almost any other country in history. Decades of the one-child policy, rising life expectancy, and rapid urbanisation have produced a demographic shift of enormous scale — and with it, a growing burden of age-related conditions that health systems were not designed to manage. Among the most significant is dementia, and its precursor, Mild Cognitive Impairment.

Sports Social Work Is Booming: NIL, Athlete Mental Health & Careers | Dr. Matthew MooreDr. Matthew Moore joins Diversified Game to break down the rapidly growing field of sport social work and what it actually takes to build a career helping athletes beyond the scoreboard.Dr. Moore is Associate Dean of Academic and Student Affairs at the University of Kentucky College of Social Work, co-founder of the Alliance of Social Workers in Sports, founder/editor of the Sport Social Work Journal, and a leader in sport social work education and research.We get into the questions people usually avoid: Do sports social work certificates actually help you get hired? Are relationships and real athletic experience more valuable than credentials? Should social workers pursue a PhD or DSW? Why are many PhD programs funded while DSW programs often are not? Where does AI help research, and where does it fall short?The conversation goes deeper into NIL, athlete protection, dual relationships, financial literacy, youth burnout, international athletes, recruiting in Africa, and the danger of making athletic identity a young person's entire identity. Dr. Moore explains why collegiate and community sports are seeing some of the strongest growth opportunities for social workers and why social work, psychology, psychiatry, coaching, and athletic training should work together instead of competing.We also discuss the University of Kentucky's sport social work education pathways, career networking, his sport social work textbook, and a new comprehensive sport social work handbook being developed with more than 100 international experts.GUESTDr. Matthew MooreUniversity of Kentucky College of Social WorkEmail: mattmoore@uky.eduAlliance of Social Workers in SportsSport Social Work JournalLearn the mindset and moves that lead to real results.

In today's episode, Claire meets with Chris Hoklotubbe and Danny Zacharias to discuss their book, Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, and North American Indigenous lenses for interpreting the Bible. In Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, Indigenous scholars Chris Hoklotubbe and Danny Zacharias explore what it means to read the Bible from the lens of Indigenous peoples in North America. Exploring the intersection of Scripture, Cultural Traditions, Hearts and Minds, and Creation, they affirm Creator's presence with Indigenous people since the beginning. By recovering these rich histories, this book offers a fresh reading of Scripture that celebrates the assets, blessings, and insights of Indigenous interpretation. Indigenous culture has often been dismissed or deemed problematic within Western Christian circles, and historical practices have often communicated that Indigenous worldviews have little to offer the church or its understanding of Scripture. Hoklotubbe and Zacharias challenge this perspective, reasserting the dignity of these cultures that were condemned through colonial practices and showing how Indigenous interpretations bring invaluable insights to all of God's people. Join the dance of North American Indigenousinterpretations of Christian ScriptureDanny Zacharias grew up in Winnipeg (Treaty 1 territory),with his maternal ancestors (Cree/Anishinaabe) inhabiting the areas of Treaty 1 and Treaty 5 territory for many generations. After completing his Bachelor of Arts at Providence College, he and his wife Maria moved to Mi'kma'ki (Nova Scotia) to complete his Master of Divinity and Master of Arts (Theology) at Acadia Divinity College. While working part-time at ADC, Danny completed his PhD in New Testament studies through Highland Theological College (University of Aberdeen). During his time serving at ADC, Danny also completed the processof ordination with the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada and serves regularly in his local church. Danny also carries administrative responsibilities as Associate Dean and Director of the Hayward Lectures. In addition to his role at ADC, Danny is a faculty member of NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community. More than any of these achievements, Danny is most proud to call Maria his wife, Lex, Jack, and Hudson his sons, and Ella-Rose his daughter.Christopher Hoklotubbe (ThD, Harvard) is a proud member ofthe Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. He is the director of graduate studies of NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community, the first accredited Indigenous designed, developed, delivered, and governed theological institute. He is also assistant professor of classics at Cornell College (Mount Vernon, Iowa). He is the author of Civilized Piety: The Rhetoric of Pietas in the Pastoral Epistles and the Roman Empire, which was awarded the Manfred Lautenschläger Award for Theological Promise. He and his wife, Stephanie, have two daughters and live near Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

For most GenXers, going to the beach in the 70s and 80s meant jumping waves, building sandcastles, and getting sun poisoning so bad you and your siblings would take turns peeling each other's skin off. For Heidi K. Brown, it was her job to put a stop to all that beach fun. Her summers were spent pounding the hot sand passing out flyers trying to convince parents to hand their kids over to her parents' Vacation Bible School. Bitchin' summer? NOT! In this episode, Eileen talks with Heidi about her memoir THE MAP I DRAW, the path that led her from law and legal writing into travel memoir, and how Rome became a turning point in her life. They dig into family, faith, fear, rebellion, and the idea of “aging powerfully” instead of quietly accepting limits.Heidi shares how travel became a form of healing from some of the dysfunction she carried from her conservative fundamentalist Gen X childhood, how she built a writing practice around journals and Morning Pages, and why she sees memoir as both storytelling and self-advocacy.Heidi is a Law Professor and Associate Dean for Upper Level Writing at New York Law School. She earned her master's degree in Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2021. She crafted a life of flourishing through teaching, writing, boxing, jumping up and down at U2 concerts, studying Italian, and traveling the world solo.

At some point every exasperated teacher has thrown up their hands and repeated some version of "these kids just aren't motivated." Yet schools respond to unmotivated kids with the same toolkit every single time — carrots and sticks, points and prizes, lunch detentions, indoor recess, and on and on. Viewed through the lens of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, we start to see how the daily experience of school conspires to frustrate and thwart almost everything we understand about motivation. And when that results in disengagement, we tend to blame the student instead of the environment. However, when these needs are met, achievement and well-being improves, and behavioral and emotional disengagement decreases. And it's not just for students, teachers whose needs for autonomy are supported report greater self-efficacy, job satisfaction, vitality, and less exhaustion. It seems like a no-brainer: if you want your students to do better, feel better, and be more engaged, and if you want to be less exhausted, you'll want to hear what my guest today has to say about self-determination theory and agentic engagement.Dr. Erika Patall is an award-winning researcher and Professor of Education and Psychology and Associate Dean of Research in the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California. Her areas of expertise include the nature and determinants and development of motivation, education practices that support motivation and achievement, and research synthesis methods.I had the privilege of attending a workshop led by Dr. Patall at the Student Power Summit this past spring on Student Motivation and Engagement in Culturally Diverse Classrooms, and I immediately knew we would need to bring that conversation to our listeners.Dr. Erika Patall @ USC

Dr. Hooman Rashidi is Associate Dean of AI in Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh and Executive Director of CPACE. Before Pitt, he founded Cleveland Clinic's Center for AI and Data Science and directed AI at UC Davis Medical Center. Ed asks him whether medical staff are prepared for AI. His answer is that even the ones who feel ready are not, because people bundle every kind of AI together and the newer generative tools don't behave like the predictive models the field has been using for decades. In this episode of DGTL Voices, he explains what's missing from tumor boards, why he leads with education before deployment, how Pitt runs a hybrid strategy rather than committing to vendors alone, and why his center puts junior contributors on patent filings when most institutions don't. https://bio.marxadvisory.com/

Women regularly hold leadership roles in stats departments at universities and in major statistical organizations, but it wasn't so long ago that women had to fight to be included. At one point, women faculty had to climb through the windows of the faculty club at Berkeley to attend meetings there; the stories of the struggles of women to be accepted in the profession aren't always visible. But one scholar is working to ensure those stories aren't forgotten. That's the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories with guest Amanda Golbeck.  Amanda Golbeck is the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in the College of Public Health at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, where she's also a professor of biostatistics. Golbeck's known for her work on health numeracy, demography, and human intervention trials, but she's also known for her work on statistical narrative and for the biographies she's written. In 2025, Golbeck published Florence Nightingale David: A Passionate Probabilist, Statistician, Historian, and Leader, and in 2017, Equivalence: Elizabeth L. Scott at Berkeley. In 2016, Golbeck received the Elizabeth L.

For more than 150 years, Black communities have gathered to honor freedom, resilience, and the ongoing struggle for true liberation. While Juneteenth has recently gained wider recognition, it was one of many Emancipation Day traditions celebrated across the United States. These observances were spaces of joy, remembrance, and resistance—even as the fight for full freedom was unfinished. Black Freedom: A Visual History of Juneteenth and Emancipation Days (Black Dog & Leventhal, 2026) brings together stirring essays and striking images from Juneteenth and beyond, offering a sweeping portrait of how Black people have created and sustained rituals of remembrance, a testament to the generations who, through celebration and storytelling, demanded that their contributions to the making of America be fully recognized. Blair L.M. Kelley, Ph.D. is a renowned author, historian, and scholar of the African American experience. She is the seventh president of the National Humanities Center, the only independent center for advanced study in the world dedicated exclusively to the humanities. Blair previously held senior leadership roles at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as the Joel R. Williamson Distinguished Professor of Southern Studies and Director of the Center for the Study of the American South and at North Carolina State University where she served as Associate Dean for Interdisciplinary Affairs and Partnerships and the Alumni Graduate Professor of History.

In this episode Don Donderi is talking about his book 'Truth, Lies and ETs: How We Stumbled into the Universe'. Earth is in the middle of a revolution. It might lead us to more knowledge about ourselves, our place in the universe and the universe itself, or it might lead us to catastrophe. This book is a report on seventy-five years of history during which extraterrestrials (ETs) and their extraterrestrial vehicles (ETVs;, which used to be called UFOs) – have made themselves a part of life on earth. Don Donderi, psychology professor at McGill University in Montreal (retired), tells us in Truth, Lies and ETs: How we Stumbled into the Universe, that Alien visitors have been kidnapping humans and treating us like specimens for at least 75 years. Beginning during the last years of World War 2, visitors from elsewhere in the Universe began arriving in their “flying saucers.” They haven't left, and have been observing and experimenting with us ever since. The uninvited extraterrestrial visitors (ETs) kidnap and examine people; interfere with human reproduction to create hybrid human-aliens, and come and go as they please. While every part of this story has been told before by careful and dedicated researchers, Donderi assembles it all into one easily accessible volume that makes it hard to ignore: what is really happening (Truth), how governments have tried to conceal what is happening (Lies), and who is doing this to us (ETs) His book is a concise summary of our current uncertain status on the planet that we used to think was ours alone. It brings together facts that, taken one at a time, might easily be dismissed, forgotten or ignored. But when the simultaneous impact of all the facts are considered, one conclusion is inescapable, that we humans are no longer masters of our planet. Extraterrestrials treat us the way we routinely treat earth's lesser species: tracking, capturing, and breeding them and keeping them under surveillance. We have to realize that this is happening before we can act together to regain control of our destiny on earth. Bio Don Donderi was educated at the University of Chicago, which he entered at 15. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree at 18 and a B.Sc. in biological psychology at 21. He began his professional career as a research psychologist with IBM where he helped to develop radar navigation displays for the B-52 bomber. After graduating from Cornell University with a PhD in experimental psychology he joined the Faculty of Science of McGill University, where he taught undergraduate psychology, trained PhD students and served as Associate Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research. He retired from McGill in 2009 after a career of 47 years. He has written over one hundred basic research papers and technical reports dealing with the science of human visual perception and memory, co-authored one textbook and edited another. He co-founded a Toronto-based ergonomics consulting company and has carried out applied research and development projects for private and government clients on topics including flight instrumentation, flight simulation, marine navigation in ocean and arctic environments, nuclear safety and chemical process engineering. His entire career has been in the mainstream of science and engineering. https://www.amazon.com/Truth-Lies-ETs-Stumbled-Universe/dp/1952439280/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcasthttps://simonbown.com/My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_ufo Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Stores and restaurants don't just play music to fill the silence. The tempo, volume, and even the style of music are often carefully chosen because they can quietly influence your behavior and even how much money you spend. Once you know what's happening, you'll start hearing those playlists very differently. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/002224298204600313 Your brain performs an astonishing magic trick every second of every day. It decides what deserves your attention—and what doesn't. Most of the time that's incredibly helpful. But it also means important clues, costly mistakes, opportunities, and even obvious dangers can sit right in front of you without you ever noticing them. Why does that happen, and can you train yourself to see what you've been missing? Here to explain is Keelan Leyser, a digital illusionist and one of the world's leading experts on attention and perception. Along with the late neuropsychologist David Lewis, he is co-author of the book Unseen: Blind Spots and Why We Miss What Matters Most (https://amzn.to/4ylvxkh). Most of us walk on sidewalks without giving them a second thought. But once you start asking simple questions—Who actually owns the sidewalk? Who is responsible to maintain it? Why do some sidewalks suddenly end? And why do some streets have no sidewalks at all? —you discover that sidewalks are surprisingly complicated and have become the center of debates over property rights, public space, safety, and even free speech. Michael Pollack takes us into a world that's been hiding in plain sight. He is Professor of Law and Associate Dean for Faculty Development at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and author of the book Sidewalk Nation: The Life and Law of America's Most Overlooked Resource (https://amzn.to/4fBOhEJ). When you suddenly need to buy something—a new refrigerator, a laptop, a plane ticket, almost anything—it's easy to assume you have no choice but to pay whatever it costs. In reality, there's one surprisingly simple habit that can keep "must buy it now" moments from quietly costing you hundreds of dollars over time. https://www.consumerreports.org/money/shopping/how-to-save-money-shopping-online/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS WAYFAIR: Ready to upgrade your home for way less?

Too much of modern politics is built on false choices. Left or right. Win or lose. Good or bad. My side or your side. That may work for cable news, campaign fundraising, and social media algorithms, but it does not work well for families, communities, or good policymaking. Real life is more complicated than our political categories allow.That is why I enjoyed this conversation with Dr. Lauren Hall, Professor of Political Science and Associate Dean at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Lauren's work sits at the intersection of political theory, human behavior, healthcare regulation, family, culture, and real-world decision-making. She is the author of The Medicalization of Birth and Death and Family and the Politics of Moderation. She also writes at Radical Moderate's Guide to Life, where she challenges the binary thinking that dominates politics and culture.Her idea of radical moderation is not about being weak, vague, or halfway between two bad options. It is about taking complexity seriously. It means recognizing tradeoffs, respecting pluralism, and admitting that no political tribe has a monopoly on truth.

Episode Summary     What if a medical career could be built on profound purpose, paid for in full, and shaped by leadership opportunities no civilian path can match? In this episode of WarDocs, COL Danielle Holt, MD, an Army general surgeon and Associate Dean of Admissions and Recruitment at the Uniformed Services University (USU) School of Medicine, lays out exactly what it takes to become a military physician and why the journey is worth it. Drawing on a career that has carried her from broad-spectrum rural surgery at Fort Wainwright, Alaska, to a forward surgical team in Afghanistan, to serving as consultant surgeon for the White House Medical Team at Walter Reed, she offers a candid, insider's view of the two pathways into uniformed medicine.       The conversation centers on the choice every service-minded pre-med must weigh: the tuition-free USU School of Medicine, the nation's only fully federally funded medical school, versus the Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) that places students at civilian schools. She explains the trade-offs in plain terms — the seven-year versus four-year service obligation, the roughly $90,000 annual salary USU students earn while in school, the one hundred hours of military-unique curriculum, and the rotations across military treatment facilities worldwide. She is equally direct about the military match, where competitive specialties such as general surgery can be more attainable than many applicants realize.    COL Holt demystifies admissions. Academics are a threshold, not the finish line — a 496 MCAT and 3.0 GPA for regular decision, rising to a 500 minimum, with a class mean near 510. Beyond the numbers, she explains what actually earns an interview and an offer: a clear reason to be a physician, a genuine commitment to military service, and the personal attributes of teamwork, adaptability, and being comfortable when things get uncomfortable. She names the self-inflicted mistakes that sink applicants — turning the application in late, stalling on medical clearance and waivers, retaking the MCAT too often, and failing to engage the admissions team. She closes with the human core of the school: the fire team model, longitudinal faculty coaching, the Military Medical Communities program, and a culture where students and faculty take care of one another in a way civilian medicine rarely sees. Her message to any pre-med on the fence is simple — do not underestimate yourself, reach out for mentorship, and remember that the mission is the point. Chapters (00:00-04:54) A Surgeon's Journey: ROTC, Alaska, Afghanistan, and the White House (04:55-10:11) What USUHS Is and Why It Is Different (10:12-19:38) USUHS versus HPSP: Obligations, the Military Match, and How to Choose (19:39-27:39) Timelines, Thresholds, and What Earns an Interview (27:40-43:39) Shadowing, Research, Non-Traditional Applicants, and Common Mistakes (43:40-55:30) The Interview, the Fire Team Culture, and Advice for the Fence-Sitter Chapter Summaries (00:00-04:54) A Surgeon's Journey: ROTC, Alaska, Afghanistan, and the White House Holt traces a twenty-plus-year dual-military-career path from ROTC and HPSP through general surgery training at Tripler Army Medical Center to duty stations spanning rural Alaska and a tertiary academic hospital. She describes deploying to a forward surgical team in eastern Afghanistan in 2012 and learning damage-control surgery, and credits the Army with handing her leadership roles far earlier than a civilian career would.   (04:55-10:11) What USU Is and Why It Is Different She defines the Uniformed Services University as the nation's only fully federally funded, tuition-free medical school, training physicians for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Public Health Service. Students draw full pay and benefits — roughly $90,000 a year — complete about one hundred hours of military-unique curriculum, and rotate at military treatment facilities across the country and overseas.   (10:12-19:38) USU versus HPSP: Obligations, the Military Match, and How to Choose Holt compares the seven-year USU service obligation with the four-year HPSP commitment and argues the difference is small over a full career. She explains the military match, where critically needed specialties like general surgery can be more attainable, and walks through how applicants apply by service, weigh geography and specialty, and decide which pathway fits their long-term goals.   (19:39-27:39) Timelines, Thresholds, and What Earns an Interview The USU medical-school timeline mirrors other allopathic schools through AMCAS, but military commissioning adds a lengthy medical clearance process, with about half of students needing a waiver. Academics are a threshold — a 496 MCAT and 3.0 GPA for regular decision. Above all, she stresses applying early and finishing requirements, because uncleared applicants get skipped as seats fill.   (27:40-43:39) Shadowing, Research, Non-Traditional Applicants, and Common Mistakes She pushes back on the pressure around clinical shadowing, noting USU requires none and that paid work as a phlebotomist or technician offers equal exposure. Research is likewise not required, given USU's own Capstone program. She details how the school values non-traditional and prior-service applicants, then names the most common self-inflicted mistakes: late applications, stalled clearances, over-testing the MCAT, and downplaying military experience.   (43:40-55:30) The Interview, the Fire Team Culture, and Advice for the Fence-Sitter Holt explains the virtual two-interview format and what makes candidates stand out — genuine commitment, professionalism, and self-knowledge. She describes the fire team model, longitudinal faculty coaching, and the Military Medical Communities program that links applicants, students, and physicians across services. Her closing advice to fence-sitting pre-meds: do not underestimate yourself, seek mentors, and lead with the mission.   Take Home Messages Mindset matters more than a perfect score.: Academic metrics are a threshold, not the finish line. The strongest military physicians are often the applicants who have struggled, adapted, and bounced back — people who value service over a flawless transcript.   The pathway you choose should match the career you want.: The tuition-free, federally funded medical school carries a longer obligation but builds deeper military identity and connections, while the civilian scholarship route offers more independence. Weigh service obligation, specialty goals, and where you see yourself for the long term.   Apply early and finish your requirements.: Rolling admissions reward speed. The single most avoidable mistakes are turning in a late application, stalling on medical clearance and waivers, and waiting too long on the MCAT or letters of recommendation. Uncleared applicants get skipped as seats fill.   Shadowing and research are not gatekeepers.: Required shadowing hours and formal research are not prerequisites. Paid clinical work and life experience count, and the value placed on non-traditional and prior-service applicants means an unconventional background can be a genuine strength.   Camaraderie is the difference, so engage the community.: The fire team model, longitudinal coaching, and military medical community sessions create a culture where students and faculty take care of one another. Do not underestimate yourself — reach out for mentorship and let the mission lead.   Episode Keywords military medicine, USU School of Medicine, Uniformed Services University, Danielle Holt, military doctor, how to become a military physician, HPSP scholarship, military medical school, Army surgeon, premed advice, MCAT, medical school admissions, military match, GME, forward surgical team, Walter Reed, military residency, USUHS, tuition free medical school, military officer physician, WarDocs, military healthcare career, premed shadowing, medical school interview, service obligation Hashtags #MilitaryMedicine, #WarDocs, #USU, #MilitaryMedicalSchool, #HPSP, #FutureMilitaryDoc, #PreMed, #ArmyMedicine Honoring the Legacy and Preserving the History of Military Medicine The WarDocs Mission- WarDocs exists to honor the legacy of Military Medicine, preserve its history, and inspire every generation — across all Services, Corps, and Ranks — to serve with excellence and pride.

AI is not just changing how lawyers work. It is changing how lawyers learn. In episode 624 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser talks with April Dawson, Associate Dean of Technology and Innovation and Professor of Law at North Carolina Central University School of Law, about what AI means for legal education, new lawyer training, and the future of law practice.  April explains why law schools can no longer rely on written work alone to measure whether students truly understand the material. As AI becomes embedded in legal writing, research, and drafting tools, new lawyers will need to prove their value in different ways, including verbal explanation, critical thinking, judgment, and the ability to use technology responsibly.  Together, they explore how AI may shrink traditional mentorship opportunities, why new lawyers need to become more self-directed learners, and how legal employers may increasingly expect graduates to arrive with real AI fluency. April also shares why small firm owners should rethink their workflows from beginning to end instead of layering AI on top of inefficient systems.  If you are wondering what the next generation of lawyers needs to know, this episode offers a practical look at how AI is reshaping legal education, law firm training, and the skills lawyers will need to stay valuable.  Listen to our previous episodes on AI Skills New Lawyers Need Now.  #619: What Claude Means for Law Firms: AI Skills, Connectors, and Workflow Strategy, with Sam Harden Apple | Spotify | LTN  #590: Innovating Without Overwhelm: Practical AI Tips for Lawyers, with Graydon Trusler  Apple | Spotify | LTN   #577: Rethinking Law Firm Growth in the Age of AI, with Sam Harden Apple | Spotify | LTN  #553: AI Tools and Processes Every Lawyer Should Use, with Catherine Sanders Reach Apple | Spotify | LTN  Have thoughts about today's episode?

America's 250th birthday is just a few weeks out, and festivities are underway. But, leaving aside disputes about fist fights and daring stunts on the White House South Lawn, a question emerges about what a serious celebration of the American way looks and feels like. To consider this and more, Charles, James, and a visiting Peter Robinson sit down with Matthew Mehan, author and Associate Dean of Hillsdale College's graduate school in Washington, D.C., to discuss The American Book of Fables.The gang thinks through the meaning of our civic inheritance and the endeavor to pass on the baton to the young. Matt's here to remind us that the arduous effort can be joyful and that hopefulness is a trait that marks the serious thinker. Our trio also kvetches (and then some!) over the Iran deal, winces at the newly unveiled Obama Presidential Center, and chortles with bewilderment at the accusation that a Pride-themed baseball cap was "desecrated" by a Bible verse.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-ricochet-podcast--5817275/support.
