Dr. Austin's Lessons Learned -- Letter to RT Students

I wish I could attend this event, but regret to say that I won't be able to because of the distance. Dr. David Austin is one of my professional mentors. I seek his advice from time to time. I had selected to complete my graduate degree at Indiana University because I knew Dr. Austin taught there and I had read several of his books during undergraduate school.

Here is the Event Information:
