在岁末年初之际，有几所高校悄无声息地改换了校长。这几天国外一所高校校长的换届同样引起了不小的关注，这所学校就是世界顶尖学府 —哈佛大学。其实早在去年六月Drew Faust就已宣布即将离任，要将这根接力棒交付于下任校长手中。

这个新闻引起了广泛关注，这，就是哈佛的魅力。哈佛，在美国人心中，是美国最古老的大学，图书馆藏书量最多的美国大学，学校基金最大的大学；各项综合竞争力最大的大学；也是一直引领前沿科技的大学…..

有人曾将大学校长比作大学的灵魂，对于这所学校的改革和发展，校长将起到决定性作用。作为哈佛校长，更是在全球教育界有 “一言九鼎”的话语权。自 1636年成立至今，从哈佛大学走出一批批杰出校友，引领着世界发展的方向。多年以来，哈佛稳步保持在美国乃至全世界的领先排名，这可不是件容易的事儿，这和历届校长的努力是分不开的。

近日，哈佛官方宣布现任校长 Drew Faust将于今年7月离任，将接力棒交给新一任校长——Lawrence S. Bacow。接下来和 老师 一起来了解一下这位拥有三个哈佛博士学位的移民后裔新校长吧。

在教育领导上，Bacow确实是一个经验丰富的人。他曾在麻省理工学院任教24年，最终被任命为该校名誉校长兼系主任。2001年，他又担任塔夫茨大学校长长达10年。2011年，Bacow加入哈佛大学董事会，并担任肯尼迪政府学院公共领导力中心的负责人。

看上去 Bacow和哈佛大学的联系也就只有这6年，但是他是一个地地道道的“哈佛人”。他曾在哈佛大学攻读硕博学位，最后在哈佛获得法学博士、公共政策硕博共三个学位。他认为正是哈佛帮助他发现了 “我是谁”。

“Harvar mae me better. It was here I learne that I was a teacher at heart. It was here that I iscovere that I wante to evote my life to scholarship. It was here that I nurture my passion for higher eucation. An it was here that I iscovere who I really was.”

——Lawrence S. Bacow竞选胜出后的公开讲话

现年 66岁的Bacow是密歇根州庞蒂亚克市（pontiac）土生土长的人。庞蒂亚克位于底特律市西北方向，是底特律汽车工业的一个中心。不过，庞蒂亚克的经济状况并不好，贫困人口一直高居不下。

庞蒂亚克也是外来族裔的聚集地，Bacow就是移民后裔中的一员。他的父亲是来自东欧的难民，母亲当时从欧洲移民逃离二战和纳粹的迫害，是奥斯维辛集中营的幸存者。在当选校长的演讲中，他几度哽咽地说：

如果当年这个国家（美国）背弃了我的父母，我今天就不会站在你们的面前，我认为我们应该要尽全力去保护那些对其它国家不了解的学生。

如今 Bacow通过个人努力走入大众视野，并进入美国主流的上层精英社会，最终赢得了高等教育的信任。这也让我们发问，在特朗普反对全球化的声音中，Bacow是否会继续带领哈佛维持其多元性以及种族平等。

Bacow自己也说，在国家呈现这样分化状态的时候，他感受到一种使命感，认为自己应该加速推进大学整合利用资源来使世界变得更美好。

Bacow是环境政策和法律方面的学者,他大部分职业生涯都在担心环境问题。他认为哈佛在今后促进关于气候变化的对话方面应该发挥重要作用。

值得注意的是，Bacow正就职于肯尼迪政府学院。该学院是培养政治家的摇篮，多国政要及其子女曾在这里读过。肯尼迪政府学院的地位在各国都举足轻重，“与其说政府试图影响我们，不如说我们在影响政府。” 肯尼迪政府学院教授安东尼·赛奇（Anthony Saich）曾在接受《外滩画报》采访时说。

肯尼迪政府学院成立于 1936年。1966年，时任美国第35任总统的约翰肯尼迪遇刺之后，学院为纪念这样一位伟大的总统，便将学院更名为肯尼迪政府学院。

在学院门口，有一句肯尼迪的名言： “不要问国家能为你做什么，先问你自己能为国家做什么”。这句话集中表达了“哈佛培养精英服务全球社会”的理念。

不知道在肯尼迪学院做领导力负责人的 Bacow,是否会发挥其领导力优势，以强硬姿态应对美国政府，并且更进一步加深哈佛培养精英服务全球社会的理念？

Bacow在大选后表示：“我很荣幸有机会领导这个杰出的机构 - 并且成功了Drew Faust，自从我们十多年前见面以来，我一直被认为是朋友和灵感。

“The Harvar I have known has always stoo for at least three things: the pursuit of truth,an unwavering commitment to excellence,an opportunity,” Bacow ae. “In a nation ivie,these guiing ieals have never been more important. We shoul never shy away from nor be apologetic about affirming our commitment to making the worl a better place through our teaching an scholarship an our commitment to truth,excellence,an opportunity for all. An we shoul always recognize that,for all of our progress towar realizing these ieals over ecaes an centuries,there is much more we can learn,more we can contribute,more we can o better.

“我认识的哈佛大学至少代表了三件事：追求真理，坚定不移地致力于追求卓越和机会，”Bacow补充说。“在一个分裂的国家，这些指导理想从未如此重要。我们决不应该回避，也不应该抱歉承认我们通过我们的教学和学术以及我们对所有人的真相，卓越和机会的承诺来使世界变得更美好的承诺。我们应该始终认识到，为实现这些理想在几十年和几百年中取得的所有进展，我们可以学到更多东西，我们可以做出更多贡献，更多我们可以做得更好。

“We are blesse with extraorinary stuents,faculty,an staff,” he sai. “Whenever I see tourists taking pictures in Harvar Yar,I want to stop them an say,‘No! Harvar is not its builings.
