Robert Ivey Personal Education Philosophy: The study of history and man's society should be an important part of a college education. Knowledge of ourselves, our past and where we are going should give us insight into the world we live in today. I hope to help students to be aware of the impact that history has made on us and that it is not just something that happened a long time ago, with no relevance to us today. |
