-: My job at Nebraska
has been as a Professor of Educational Psychology.
I've been interested forever
in how to improve teaching and learning.
When I started to the university,
which I did as a 17 year old way back when,
I think there were 8000 students.
I think it was my 50th birthday and my students decided,
hey, we have to celebrate that.
So they came bringing in a cake with 50 candles on it.
That was so many candles that it set off the fire alarm.
(laughs)
Now I don't know what the heck it would do.
It probably would call out the fire department
and everything else.
It's just the great people.
The staff, the faculty, the students.
They come from everywhere, every part of the world,
every part of Nebraska.
That's a great thing.
I run across former students all the time
in all kinds of places.
So that's a great, great feeling.
Fifty years has gone by like a flash.
I just have the warmest feelings
for having spent that at the University of Nebraska.
