I make frequent visits to local schools to demonstrate fossil specimens and grant frequent interviews (in person and over the phone) to grade school students regarding the profession of paleontology. I am also regularly invited to give guest lectures in courses (e.g., Evolution) taught by colleagues in other departments.

  In addition, I established an undergraduate paleobiology concenration within the Geology Department (effective April, 1989). The concentration falls under the aegis of the B.A. degree in geology. Several students are currently enrolled in the program. Students are required to participate in ongoing research projects or develop and conduct their own research effort.
