托馬斯·K·林賽（）是一位美國教育家與學者，前夏默学院院長。他曾是美國人文科學基金會（NEH）的代理會長，直至2008年12月卸任為止。他也是NEH基金計畫「[https://web.archive.org/web/20080625214951/http://www.wethepeople.gov/ 我們人民（We the People）]」的首倡理事，該計畫為探索美國歷史與文化等重要事件與主題的相關研究與其他活動，也闡述美國原則的前瞻知識。林賽是在芝加哥大學取得他的哲學博士學位。其研究大半集中在民主與教育兩者的關聯性。他的論文曾發表在《美国政治科学评论》、《政治学期刊》與《美國政治科學期刊》。
1999年，林賽成為北愛荷華州大學的政治科學教授，並贏得Pi Sigma Alpha/美國政治科學協會「傑出教學獎」。同年，受達拉斯大學提名為研究生院院長與哲學研究學院院長，隨後升格為教務長。
2005年，托馬斯·林賽成為教務長，以及有執行權的塞頓霍爾大學副校長。爭議首次爆發，起因是托馬斯·林賽雇用新進的註冊主任，而這件事處理完後，根據艾伯特· 費爾南德斯教授的說法「內部絲毫沒有經過任何商量」。
2010年4月18日，夏默學院校董會進行投票，解除了托馬斯·林賽的院長職務。是經教師及與會人士一致通過不信任投票的不久後，這件事就朝這方向演變。
