How did you find PF?

My name is Tom. I'm a 50 year old student in an online Civil Engineering program at the University of North Dakota. I currently work as a Project Engineer at a land development firm. I started this degree around 10 years ago, and had to stop due to health reasons. I'm currently finishing up my fourth semester since picking it back up again. I like woodworking, camping, hiking, kayaking, and play mandolin for fun.

Thread 'Enthusiastic Physics Learner'

I am retired with a scientific background in Mathematics and Physics though I quit Academia after graduation. Recently, my interest has revived and I have started to review what I knew before and learn new stuff. My interests are in Physics and Mathematical Physics. I hope I can find answers to some of my questions here and perhaps in the future, I can also answers some questions. How have I arrived here? During the past two months, I have been doing some online research to find the best...

Thread 'Retired high school physics teacher'

I began teaching high school math and physics after graduating LSU in 1975. I taught in public, Catholic, and prep schools for about 30 years. During my career, computers entered the schools for the first time and I became deeply involved. For a while I wrote educational software through my own company. After I retired from teaching I continued online tutoring for a few years. I am now using my last few years creating the Physics Teacher's Tool Box, a resource culled from my long career.

Thread 'Just a physics enthusiast'

Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
