Personal Commentary
Enjoyed teaching at Whittier College under leadership of President Dr. Walter Dexter who later became State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and at San Jose State College with Dr. Tom Mac Quarrie, President and friend.
I am happy to have shared life successes of many former students and friends.
I am overwhelmed by the progress made by the Department of Human Performance under the guidance of Dr. James Bryant!
Thank you for keeping me up‑to‑date by the Newsletters.
