The prize honors excellence in teaching and mentoring in the field of American diplomacy, and is named after Molly Wood of Wittenberg University, and the late Walter LaFeber, who taught at Cornell for many years.<\/p>\n<p>SHAFR is an organization of scholars dedicated to the study of American foreign relations. This was the organization\u2019s inaugural distinguished teaching prize, which included a cash award of $1,000, and required a lengthy application of letters of recommendation, sample syllabi, and a personal statement.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>\u201cThis is the inaugural award, making it even more special as it honors two people I genuinely admire\u2026 I have really worked hard over my 30 years to balance the needs of providing exemplary teaching alongside the efforts to produce scholarship.\u201d\u00a0 &#8212; Dr. Longley<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Longley also reflected on his time working with LaFeber, saying \u201cWalt was a remarkably kind and caring person\u2026 and became a respected scholar and researcher but also had the wonderful skill of being a great lecturer and teacher\u2026 he always took time to help young scholars like me with reading chapters of my books, providing encouragement, and many other duties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16318 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/wilkinson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/07\/kyle_longley_photo._2021-12_copy_720-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/wilkinson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/07\/kyle_longley_photo._2021-12_copy_720-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/wilkinson\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/07\/kyle_longley_photo._2021-12_copy_720.jpg 481w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Longley is currently a professor in Chapman University\u2019s Department of History and MA in War, Diplomacy, and Society.\u00a0 He previously taught at Arizona State University as the Snell Family Distinguished Professor from 1995-2020. He has authored nine books, with one in press, and another about to be so, and has published numerous articles and essays across several journals. Many of his former students at Chapman have received their Bachelor\u2019s and Master\u2019s Degrees in History, War and Society, or other similar topics, and have moved on to teaching themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have tried to live by the words \u2018love what you teach, but also love who you teach\u2026 teaching is as much about relationships as it is about content,\u2019\u201d said Dr. Longley. He especially takes to heart the wisdom of his past mentors who have embodied this phrase, including his doctoral mentor George Herring from the University of Kentucky, Marilyn Young from New York University, and Walter LaFeber himself.<\/p>\n<p>He elaborates on how his mentors have influenced the way he hopes his students learn by saying, \u201cMy role as a teacher has been much the same as my mentors, with an emphasis on a student-centered approach. While some may view historical events alone as the richest of lessons, my belief is to ask, \u2018What did you learn and how? As a historian with a special focus on foreign relations, military, and politics, these questions are key\u2026 What is the purpose of war? Why did diplomacy fail? How do people justify it? What does interdependence among nations really mean? \u2026To explore these questions means that students ideally leave my class pondering the same as they watch events unfold in their world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At this year\u2019s Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations Conference (SHAFR), Dr. Kyle Longley (History and MA in War,
