Do you participate in any sports?
I work out regularly at the Wellness Center, and I love to scuba dive, especially when I am at a place that has warm, clear water.
Best cup of coffee in town:
I have no idea since I don't drink coffee.
Do you volunteer anywhere?
I volunteer in several roles including webmaster at my church. I also volunteer one evening a month at the VA domiciliary.
When you were 10, what did you want to be when you grew up? How about now?
When I was 10, I wanted to be a space explorer - going where no man has gone before. Now, I'd just like to be able to do all of the things I could when I was 25, and do them more athletically than I could then.
If you could change one thing about ETSU or your time here, what would it be?
Quadruple faculty salaries in C & IS.

Boating, scuba diving, and water skiing
Are you an organ donor? Why?
Yes. Why not?
What is your primary mode of transportation?
I enjoy walking but my ancient knees and ankles prevent my doing more of it. For significant distances, I usually drive.
How old are you? How old do you feel?
Older than the earth's crust. Ditto, physically, but much younger mentally.
What is your hometown?
Johnson City has been my hometown for the last 30+ years, but I was born in Greenwood, SC.
Why did you come to ETSU?
Job.
What is your greatest hidden talent?
If I have a talent, it must be well-hidden, because I can't find it either.
If you became president of the United States, what is the first thing you would do?
Abdicate.
What's the biggest accomplishment in your life?
My children and grandson.
Have you ever been in a band? If so, what kind of band?
Only a band of crazy kids in high school that had nothing at all to do with music.
How long have you been at ETSU?
I think I arrived at the time of the big bang, or possibly just prior to that.
