Yuan Wang
- Ph.D. from University of Georgia
- M.A. from University of International Business and Economics
- B.A. from Nanjing Tech University
Receiving my Ph.D. from the University of Georgia, I was born and grew up in East China. I host enthusiasm and research strengths in a wide range of topics including comparative democratization, media politics, cyber politics, political communication, public opinion, nationalism and research methodology (both quantitative and qualitative). Focusing on authoritarian regimes, especially China, I am particularly interested in answering how authoritarianism remains durable and viable through miscellaneous means. My recent publications appear in the Journal of Chinese Political Science, International Studies Review, among others.
I teach courses such as Introduction to Global Issues, Introduction to Comparative Politics, Politics of China and Data Analysis and Visualization.
In my spare time, I love hanging out with my toddler girl and cool spouse in various museums, amusement parks and hiking and climbing trails.

I am a licensed psychologist who loves to talk about and teach psychology. I currently teach General Psychology and Advanced Counseling/Clinical Psychology. Other courses you may find me teaching include: Abnormal Psychology, Personality Theories, and Practicum Experience. I was born and raised in Horicon, Wisconsin. I now reside just outside of Horicon on my 20-acre farm with my husband and 3 children. We raise horses, alpacas, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, cats and dogs. I also operate a private practice on my farm offering equine-facilitated psychotherapy. I received my undergraduate degree in Biology and Psychology from Marian University. I did some master-level coursework in experimental psychology at UW-Oshkosh before transferring to the Wisconsin School of Professional Psychology. There I earned my masters and doctorate degree in clinical psychology. Prior to coming to Ripon College, I worked for almost 9 years as a staff psychologist for Fond du Lac County. My research interests include evidence-based treatments, specifically equine-facilitated psychotherapy.
Richard Gerstein
- B.S. in Economics from Miami University, Oxford, OH
With over 30 years of leading some of the world’s largest and most trusted brands, I launched my career at Procter and Gamble (P&G) in brand management. My time at P&G included the US headquarters working on several billion-dollar brands, five years working in Europe, and eventually leading P&G’s first significant move into the digital realm with a customized online beauty brand start-up. I then led some of the fastest-growing beauty products, including Nexus Haircare and Tresemme, before moving into retail, leading marketing for Sears and Kmart, followed by a time leading the Strategy and Marketing for HP’s computer and mobile business.
After a period leading the development of my own start-up company Zigmail, I moved into consulting where I founded the Brand CHARGE, LLC, working with Private Equity and Publicly traded companies to evaluate potential acquisitions and help drive growth on existing brands. I also work with early-stage technology companies providing strategy, marketing, and fund-raising expertise. I will be teaching one class this fall, BSA 300 02 Dept. Studies: Business Management Through the Lens of Entrepreneurship. Green Lake has been my family’s summer destination for the past 20 years, and I have now made it my primary residence with my wife, Ami. I am a board member of the Green Lake Yacht Club, enjoy sailing, traveling, and having my three sons visit here during the summer.
