Hartle has authored and co-authored numerous publications and contributes regular book reviews to The Christian Science Monitor. He is a member of Smith College’s board of trustees.

Hartle received a doctorate from The George Washington University (GWU); a master’s from the Maxwell School at Syracuse University; and a bachelor’s degree, summa cum laude, from Hiram College. He has been awarded honorary doctoral degrees from Northeastern University and the University of Redlands. In 2021, Hartle and ACE’s Government Relations and Public Affairs team received an Outstanding Contribution to Higher Education Award in recognition of their advocacy in response to the crisis the COVID pandemic posed for institutions and students.
