We are in Ames, Iowa, attending a reunion of Iowa State University residence hall workers. This group has met every other year on 8 different occasions. I am a member of the group by marriage and I did live in the residence halls as a student (President of Godfrey House) and husband of Cindy.
Iowa State has a beautiful campus with iconic buildings. Here are the Student Union and the Campanile.
I had undergraduate majors in biology and psychology and eventually received my Ph.D. in Psychology. I was housed in Old Botany as a graduate student. I had been in Old Botany in second grade to visit my uncle Don who also has an ISU PhD and was then a Prof. The buildings I have had offices in throughout my career always seemed to be old something. Old Botany is now named Catt Hall. Catt Hall is the administration building for the Liberal Arts. This sequence is typical - STEM department, Psychology, liberal arts.
One more for the romantics. Cindy and I were engaged and married while we were still undergraduates. We took a selfie at the approximate spot by Lake Laverne where I proposed, The lake looks far more attractive earlier in the year,.
