I grew up in Canonsburg,
(NOT the city of antiques while I was growing up :) a town located in Washington
County, PA. It is a small coal-mining town located south of
Pittsburgh
- in fact, a coal mine runs right under my parents' back yard. I've
lost
most of the Pittsburgh accent, but traces of it can still be heard
(particularly
after a conversation with my parents). I no longer say crick, warsh,
yunz,
pop, or still mills, but, when I speak, I still don't distinguish
between
Dawn and Don, I pronounce sandwich as sammich, and no one here has a
clue
what chipped ham is. BTW, if you look under Canonsburg, there is a
chocolate
factory called Sarris Chocolates. I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but
that
stuff is fantastic. David really loves the chocolate covered pretzels.
I obtained my Bach. of Science at Juniata
College, a VERY small private liberal arts college somewhere near
the
middle of Pennsylvania (Huntington, PA, to be exact). I graduated from
a class of approximately 200. They don't have majors; they have
Programs
of Emphasis (POE). You and your 2 advisors decide what would be the
best
options to take for future success. It's kind of like creating your own
major.
I obtained my M.A. and Ph.D. at Binghamton
University or SUNY-Binghamton. As you might guess, this is located
in Binghamton, NY, a town located in upstate New York, right over the
PA
border, near Scranton, PA.
I have lived in Valdosta since Fall, 1994 and have been married to
Dr. Wasieleski since November 21, 1998. Katrina Jean was born Sept. 16,
2003. Pictures of my homelife with David, our new baby Katrina, and
Miss
Jasmine the cat (her nicknames can't be printed on this web site :) can
be found here.
Just
go to the bottom of David's home page, read the wonderful things he has
to say about me and then look a the pictures. All of my animals
are/were
from shelters - I recommend taking a look there for a great companion
(you
will see pics of Prince and Cleo as well on the website). For just a
quick
look at David and I, go to the bottom of my homepage.
I am also a Girl Scout Leader (Troup 648) - we are working on a
web site.
I love to cook - SOAR is
a favorite site of mine as is the Global
Gourmet. I enjoy watching the FoodTV
network.
Mission Statement, Courses needed for B.A.

B.S., Outcomes, etc.
