Anything Else You’d Like To Share
With Haven Nation: My years at Lock Haven are some of my best memories of my 55
years. Coach Nan Wood was more
than a swim coach, she was a mentor & role model. Dr. Cox gave us very realistic & practical advice (make
friends with the secretaries & janitors). Bruce Young was one of my favorite classroom instructors. Sharon Taylor also was strong role
model who wanted women to be treated equally. You have to remember that back in the 70's gym classes were
just starting to go co-ed. Women
had few sports teams besides basketball & cheerleading.
If you are going to be a teacher, don't let all the data
collecting they do in the schools scare you. Don't be afraid to care for your students. Encourage them to
be their best. Attend their
sporting events, plays, and dance recitals. That means the world to them and THEY WILL REMEMBER YOU TOOK
THE TIME TO CARE!
