I didn't do my student teaching (because I hunted Waterfowl so much), no I did not graduate. At the time teachers made 6 - 7 grand a year, guys in the Steel Mill made double, and triple that. Plus they could HUNT. So.......... No regrets, and life is good. When I drive thru there now, I can't believe how built up the area is. No fast food when I was there. just Onarodo's, the Hotel, and Diner.
Enjoyed my time there, especially after I was accepted as a art major. Fantastic art program, and profs were world class artists. Incredible teachers that always pushed the envelope, and their students.
My buddies and I would hunt or fish almost everyday, and Woodcock dam was new. Pymatuning not to far away. I even have a photo of the "PA Game Commission Waterfowl Farm" barn, at Geneva, from back then.
Sounds like you have a good family tradition going, and I wish your daughter all the best. My years at Edinboro, prepared me for the SNOW of western NY.
