-: I don't wanna go back too much in time,
but I was here in the mid '80s.
The geology department was a small department.
I loved it, it was six professors
and a lady to run the front books, Marsha Gray.
Three old professors, two of which have passed on,
and then three young professors:
Dr. Flugelman, Dr. Rice, Snow are still there.
But it was really kind of a family atmosphere
and collaborative and we did a lot of fun things,
and I think I carried that attitude
to the places I worked,
and as an owner I try to do the same thing.
We wanna kinda have a family-friendly, you know,
have fun, you know, work hard play hard
type of situation.
I got that out of the Ball State Geology Department.
I loved it.
