Hi Folks! My name is Barbara Kreaseck, and I've been teaching in the Math and Computing department at La Sierra University for seven years. Prior to that I was at Atlantic Union College. I picked up an M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Lowell (now part of the University of Massachusetts system) in 1989. Prior to that I received an M.S. in Information Systems from Andrews University in 1984. Typically, I teach the freshman computer science sequence, along with a few other computer science classes and college algebra. (I'm finally getting to teach a course in Programming Langauges again, for the first year in eight years, and would appreciate any input regarding textbooks that you love or hate to use for this course.) I have one dependant: Hillary is a four-year old, part Spitz mix, dog, who usually comes when she is called, and gets car sick. I really enjoy throwing pottery, and playing wallyball (volleyball in a raquetball court). Other than that, it's work, work, work, (which I will let you all get back to). Listeningly, Barb Barbara Kreaseck, Math & Computing, La Sierra University, Riverside, CA 92324 barb@mail.lasierra.edu (909)785-2262
