Events Leading to One Person's Career in Forest Entomology

1948. My first course in entomology. I liked the subject, but just as important, I saw job potential. Here, too, I had the opportunity to interact with several OSU professors that began shaping my career -Donald Borror, Ralph Davidson (my undergraduate advisor), Dwight Delong. I also began my life-long friendship with Charles Triplehom, another undergraduate student, who was one year ahead of me.
