San Francisco State July 9, 2013


I enjoy teaching and I thought I might re-direct my passion for math and science toward undergraduate or high school students.  I met with a colleague at San Francisco State University to discuss running a course on human genetics in the spring semester.  I’ve lived in San Francisco for 32 years, yet other than watching Annie play tennis on its courts, I was completely unfamiliar with SFSU.  How could I have overlooked it?  With its 30,000 students, SFSU is by far the largest university in town.  The campus, quiet now for the summer, is nestled in the Sunset district, and I enjoyed walking along its lush lawns on this sunny day.  I learn that SFSU has a lively arts program, and I am eager to sample a few events in the coming year.  Who knows, maybe there is even a spring semester course in my future!
