My years at USM were well spent. I had good classroom, laboratory, and teaching
experiences. I enjoyed teaching so much that I went into academia and have not
regretted it. I look back on those days with fondness for the program, the faculty,
and the university, and I would (and do) encourage students to consider USM
when searching for a place to expand their chemistry knowledge.
