Universities I've Attended/Worked For

(Somewhere along the line)

My academic career has been somewhat peripatetic. Below you'll find the schools I've attended. Check them out -- I've been pleased with each of them.

Western was my first taste of college life. Go Toppers!  (Summer 1982)	University Honors Program
Transy -- we've heard all the jokes, but it remains a good liberal arts school. Go Pioneers! (1983-85)
Northern -- my wife's alma mater, and a terrific Honors Program experience. Go Norse! (1986)	University Honors Program
Excelsior -- a non-traditional school, but I love the idea of knowing no one at my college reunion. (B.A., 1987)
Kentucky -- More than a basketball team. They play football too. By the way, they even teach literature. Go Cats! (M.A., 1992)	Department of English
Ball State -- The advantages of a big school with the attention you receive at a small one. Go Cards! (Ph.D., 2002)	Department of English

Newberry College -- My new home, in Newberry, SC. Liberal Arts education with a focus on the whole student. We're also the smallest college in the country with a scholarship football program. Go Indians!
