After completing all course work for a Ph.D in musicology, it became apparent that the job market for college teaching (the only work for which the degree was relevant) had completely ceased to exist. Since learning something that had a job and salary attached to it seemed like a good idea, I went to law school.  I’ve enjoyed putting my undergraduate background in English literature and art, together with my graduate work, to good use in teaching several courses at LLAIC, ranging from opera to ballet to Jane Austen.
