Your Occupation: Professor of Middle Eastern History
Comments:
It's great to be back in contact with old friends. I have wondered what you were doing now.

I am a professor of Middle Eastern History and the History of Science at BYU. I spent almost a decade (the '90s) in New York City in graduate studies in Arabic and Islam (Columbia Univ). There I met my wife and we started our family, which now consists of two delightful children.

I enjoy teaching history: the love of teaching was certainly strengthened if not engendered while laboring as a missionary alongside you in the ROC! [Or is it more correct these days, following the Olympics, to refer to our beloved mission land as "Chinese Taipei"? Yuck!]

I'd love to hear from old friends. (I see Pres. Hyer regularly, since I work in his old department.)

Best wishes to all!
