Former students

There are many aspects to my job as a professor. I derive the most signifcant professional satisfaction from watching and learning about the success of my students.

 

I believe that the benchmarks of success for a small college science professor can be measured not only by the number of student co-authored conference presentations and manuscripts to their credit, but by the variety and quality of professional legacies that they have initiated.
