Professors like to have fun, too.
Retired Professor Charles Stewart owns a beach house in Chincoteague VA where he pursues his favorite hobbies of cycling, hiking, bird watching, and shore wandering. He has published research on the eye hazards facing people who work with hot glass. Active in local politics, Professor Jack Heller also publishes a periodical that rates wines. Interestingly, the ratings use a statistical technique to predict the quality of a wine after aging. Sometimes the direct route is faster but definitely not as scenic.
