Jim's Story

Wow...when you get old why do you suddenly feel the need to reminisce. After high school I went to Miami University and got my teaching certification to teach physical education. Figured I would teach and coach. Wasn't really much available when I graduated so I decided it was either graduate school or the Air Force. Took all my tests for officers candidate school...but when they told me I would only fly for 10 years before I would end up teaching or flying cargo I decided to go to graduate school at Western Illinois University to get my Masters Degree in Sports Management. I went to work for the Texas Rangers Professional Baseball Club...loved being around sports but your work during the season is unreal...you hardly see any games because you are busy...Expand for more
doing various things. So...I went back to Western Illinois University where I taught physical education and worked in the Campus Recreation program for 9 years. Finally decided to move on to Loyola University where I was in charge of staffing their recreational sports facility. While I was there I met my wife...got married...had two boys...quit my job to stay at home with my boys until they reached full time school age. Then I got my Illinois teaching certification and now I teach physical education and coach... Hmmm...long circle all the way back to when I first got out of college. Happily married with 2 middle school aged boys. Tenured at my school and not planning any changes...well...who knows... Feel free to send my an email if you like...
