Name:
Location: Indiana, United States

I became a Professor Emeritus after serving 29 years as a recreational therapy faculty member at Indiana University. I'm a long-time Hoosier, having grown up in Hanover, Indiana. My RT practitioner work was in psych/mental health. After completing my Ph.D. at the University of Illinois, my first faculty position was at the University of North Texas. RT has been a wonderful profession for me as I have had the opportunity to serve as an author and national leader.

The Symposium will be held May 18 – 20, 2011, at the Park Vista Hotel in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. A total of 1.5 CEUs will be available to particpants.

The Symposium Program looks wonderful. The Opening Keynote will be delivered by Peg Connolly of Western Carolina University. Bob Riley will give a presentation on NCTRC. Jeff Witman and Gene Hayes will present educational sessions. Thom Skalko, Ray West, Peg Connolly, and Pam Wilson will give sessions on the CARTE accreditation program.
