10 years as a “professional student” at University of Buffalo…wrote grants that paid for it all…lots of time traveling the country and mapping out bedrock in the small streams in the Rushford, NY area.. earned all my degrees in geology. Just retired after 26 years as a senior geologist/senior project manager working in the environmental arena. Very rewarding work! And as faith would have it, I’m in the process of closing on a cabin and property that I mapped bedrock on while doing my thesis and the owner remembers me!

Wiss Miss, do you remember "Minnie creek" that flowed through the campus? I attended UWEC 1967- 69 majoring in journalism. I wrote a fictional story about a mink that prowled it's course to the Chippewa river. My journalism professor told me to stick to more relevant stories of the day. What did he know anyway, he taught the class half drunk and was a classic liberal of the time. I disliked college as much as high school. Like others have said than " life happened" and I never looked back.

I attended UB for one semester Dino. But I was more interested in partying than studying at that point in time and I didn't make the cut, lol.


Proudly banned from the NTA.

Angela, UB was in a wonderful part of town lol

I spent 6 weeks there at baseball camp, it was a blast

Unfortunately, that's when I realized I was too small for the majors

Strange thing is Ole Miss and Suny offered me full scholarships after

I turned both of them down

We were there at the same time. For me - 1965 to 1969. Graduated in 1969. Those were the “ good old days”.

Four years at Oregon State U majoring in Ag. I should have been trapping full time 1975-9 instead of wasting time in classes.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
