In the Generalist's Corner feature of this issue, we are showcasing the contributions of Teaching of Psychology Editor Randolph A. Smith. We thought this feature would be a strategic way to celebrate Randy's acceptance of a second term, which will begin in 2003. The interview offers some insight into the ways that ToP has changed during his tenure as editor as well as the values that drive his editorial decisions. We trust you will join with the editorial staff of ToP in expressing our thanks and congratulations to Randy for his superb work on behalf of psychology educators.
