A Little About Me
- I was a visiting computer science professor for
Winter Semester 2006 - 2007. An invitation from the
University of Leipzig, a
Fulbright Award and a
sabbatical from
Montana State University
enabled me to do this.
- Although I taught in English, I minored in German
in college and enjoyed working on my German speaking
abilities.
