ĢƵ Sentiments and Memories . . .
"Started in 1976, right after the certification of ĢƵ. I am the first student
to graduate with two full degrees (B.S. Geology, B.S. Environmental Science.) Those
three years were some of the best, and yet, they gave me the platform to continue
making better days. Seven years as a staff geologist in Kansas. Thirty-four years
of teaching high school science... 22 years as an adjunct professor. I have traveled
to science destinations my whole life: rafted the Grand Canyon, mountain climbing,
swimming in the exact middle of the Pacific Ocean, scuba diving, working as a volunteer
in an aquarium, and animal husbandry... and now as I retire, I am working as an adjunct
professor at Coastal Carolina University teaching in their marine science institute.
I miss the quiet walk across Lake Fred in the morning for that 8 o'clock class...
I can never quite find that peace... I miss those days, and used those days as a platform
to an adventurous life... thank you, ĢƵ."
