Were you, for example, drawn by the subject matter, by particular teachers, or something else? 3. Where did you go to college? Why did you like/dislike about the history classes you had in college? I went to James Madison University for a B.A. and M.Ed. (Secondary Education/History) and to the College of William and Mary for a M.A. The professors I had in college were truly outstanding and inspiring. We had a group of history majors who loved our subject and we all bonded over our classes. Usually, we went to the Student Center after class and talked about what we did that day. 4. When did you start teaching? What are the places you have taught?
