"In order to be an effective professor, you must have 1) a deep love of the subject and 2) a passion for the students you teach. A high school typing teacher inspired my going into teaching business. Inspiring the students to love their profession and to honor God in how they use their skills is why and how I teach business. What a great calling for life."
