History:
SUNY Cortland BS 1978
SUNY Cortland MS 1981
Cornell University PhD 1993
Newfield High School 1978-79
Broome Community College 1981 - present
I have been at BCC since 1981, teaching mainly College Physics (liberal arts, algebra based) or preparatory physics. I have also taught some physical science, math and computer courses. I worked on an NFS grant with Cortland's Elementary Education faculty to develop courses aimed at ee majors which we also teach at BCC.
My husband, Carl, and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary last summer, 1999, and our daughter Jennifer got married this March, 2000. She has been attending Transylvania University in Lexington, KY and will be transferring to Western Kentucky State University to major in Military History. My husband also works at BCC as a technical assistant in the new Decker Health Center where he gets to work with all the computers and other equipment for the building. We still enjoy camping, traveling (a lot to Kentucky lately), and working on our genealogies.
