Williamson, Michael. SMT Division Dean. (B.A., Texas Lutheran College; A.A.S., No. Hennepin Community College; M.S., San Francisco State University). Favorite teaching strategy from Richard Paul and Linda Elder – "show students that skilled thinkers readily admit the limits of their knowledge, ask questions when they are unclear, and change their thinking when they hear arguments more reasonable than their own. In short, we want to demonstrate the need for intellectual humility and the danger of intellectual arrogance. Students learn best those things we exemplify for them." The Division office is presently located on the second floor of Building 7 – room 7217. Mike can be reached at (650) 738-4221 or williamsonm@smccd.edu
