Daniel Hengel is an Assistant Professor of English in the Arts and Humanities Department and the Director of the Writing and Critical Literacy Center at Columbia Greene Community College. He loves being a teacher and believes in the liberatory potential of education. The classroom is one of his favorite places to hang. His classes focus on how the language(s) and literatures we write and read shape agency and how we “see” the world around us. Outside of the classroom, Professor Hengel likes to hike, wander, build stuff, and hang with his family. He’s super into “touching grass.”
