Guess the story about Taking Over the Train started me thinking about DePaul. I rode the train to and from class, generally two nights a week.
So, in my post today on the Senior Center Murders Blog (instead of doing an interview with myself as part of the BookLocker virtual tour) I created a list of the professors that I had when I was at DePaul. Some of you may recognize the names: David Jolliffe, now at the University of Arkansas; Michele Morano, author of Grammar Lessons; Craig Sirles, Director of the MA in Writing; Lucy Rinehart; Eric Murphy Selinger; Peter Vandenberg; and S.L. Wisenberg.
I got a kick tracking down pictures and website addresses for all of them. I think that I may have posted the only photograph of Craig Sirles in circulation! It also brought back a lot of memories.
I'd be happy to hear from other graduates of the program or anyone who has stories to tell about any of the professors mentioned.

Good post.
I graduated in 2002 and I never ever saw Sirles without his beard. Don't think I would ever recognize him on the street today. Still keep in touch with Jolliffe though. The man was brilliant.
