From Rowena Paton Manuel, in Shell, Wyoming:
I am a 1957 graduate of your college. There was just one girls dorm and one boys dorm when I was there - that really dates me!
After graduation, I was an elementary teacher in California schools until retirement about 16 years ago. Some of my most interesting school experiences were when another Arizona State College at Flagstaff graduate, Dollie Yazzie, nee Lee, and I organized a bi-cultural exchange program between our respective schools. We organized and conducted these exchange programs for thirteen years. It was quite an experience. Dollie is currently teaching Navajo Culture and Language in the Gallup - McKinley County Schools in New Mexico.
After retirement, I returned to my old stomping grounds in Shell, Wyoming In 1997, my husband an I, along with our nephew, Dr. Erik Kvale, Indiana Geological Survey, discovered the largest dinosaur tracksite in Wyoming. We now conduct guided tours and educational field workshops for college credit in the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming -- the real Jurassic Park. You can see what one of your retirees is now doing by checking our website www.geo-sciences.com
