Lawyer and history professor? Hans Leaman shares his unexpected journey to Yale University, where he trained to be both a lawyer and a historian. During that time, he researched in Germany and provided attorney services pro bono for refugees in Washington, D.C. He and President Johnson discuss the best ways to welcome and help refugees, especially as the church. Now, as Sattler’s Associate Professor of History (among other roles), he shares his passion for studying humanities and tells President Johnson how he chooses course material and topics for his classes.

Hans Leaman, JD, PhD received his A.B. from Princeton University, a J.D. from Yale Law School, and a Ph.D. from Yale University’s History Department and Renaissance Studies Program. He is the Academic Dean and Associate Professor of History at Sattler College.
