"A man without education is like a building without foundation" ~ Anonymous
I have been lucky enough in my life to have had some wonderful teachers and to have studied at a variety of institutions. All of which have made me a smarter man. Here is a list of the colleges I have attended, the degrees I have obtained, and the important skills or computer programs I like to think I am mastering more and more with each passing day.
