and now am
able to enjoy my first love... teaching. For me, academia is a choice,
not a station of last resort.

11 beers for you. :-) Teachers who like to teach are a precious asset.
What
do you teach?


I started out teaching Vocational Machine Shop, but I now teach
Aviation Maintenance Technology.

I'm afraid to ask, but I will: Do you sometimes get students who are barely
qualified to work at Jiffy Lube, and think they're ready to work on aircraft
that carry hundreds of passengers (to their deaths)?
