He had no intentions of becoming a professor. His goal changed in college as he began to work in research and with animals, and that eventually led to his major and career choice. Now he is a professor working with students every day. Part of Dr. Bergers interactions with students include his graduate assistants. The graduates help Dr. Berger carry out his research, as well as composing the output for publication.
Writing is a big part of college and research.
Dr. Berger has produced over 300 articles for various publications. His writing does not come easily to him personally. For most of the publications, that are in his name, he it the instigator, editor, and co-author, with a graduate student actually doing the grunt work. Dr. Berger continually promotes the concept of prioritizing. His main idea about education is that students should learn earlier how to study.
