College
Freshman year only one building on campus, Rod Levenduski building a wall of blocks made from newspaper in music appreciation class; Soph year Grossnickle Hall opened, I had the mumps - twice! the Science Symposium in Boston and presenting my own original research; Jr year and Junior Practicum - I actually got to teach a couple of classes during the Spring practicum session, Comparative Anatomy with Dr. Barone (that bow tie he wore everyday!), Analytical Chem with Dr. Lurie - he gave me distilled water as my unknown!

And graduation - we'd finally made it!
