Theodore Josiha Haig, J.D., Ed.D. ’70 — Global educator
Theodore Josiha Haig, J.D., Ed.D. ’70 has had a long career in education both domestically and abroad, and it all started in Providence. As a student, he served as the first president of what was then known as the Afro-American Society, and he was the first director of PC’s Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Scholarship. On the Providence College Podcast, he details his journey from teaching high school math in Providence to superintendent of schools in Connecticut and New Jersey to leading educational reform for the government of Qatar. Haig, who grew up in the Bronx, also shares how his trips to more than 78 countries have informed his current passion for writing novels. He published his sixth novel, Baldwin Village, in September.
