About this episode
On this Walker Webcast, Willy was joined by Jay Hartzell, President of Southern Methodist University (SMU) – one of the nation’s premier research and teaching universities.
At a time of historic momentum for the university – record applications, investments in technology, and an athletics program on the ascent – Jay brings a bold and forward-lookingvision to SMU.
He and Willy discussed key moments in Jay’s upbringing and career, his entry into the real estate world, how AI is influencing the SMU curriculum and driving a renaissance of liberal arts, how to produce well-rounded students, SMU’s move into the ACC, and much more.
