About
Paul Price has taught
at UW-WC since fall 1998. Born in Lubbock, Texas, he’s lived
in San Antonio, Los Angeles, and Beaver Dam. He received a
BS and MS in Geology from Texas Tech University, two degrees
he parlayed into a brief stint as a programmer in Los
Angeles. He made up for the short programming career by
spending many years as a doctoral student in geography at
UCLA. Eventually, after teaching at Santa Monica College,
jouncing through the Northridge earthquake, experiencing the
LA riots up close, feeling the heat of fires burn slopes
behind his apartment, dodging mud flows in the canyons, and
having his car broken into by people who eventually decided
he had nothing to steal, migrated to Wisconsin because he
heard they had blizzards. Luckily, Kristin, his wife-to-be,
lived there and was friends with Cathy Helgeland who roped
him into his first position with the Colleges as an IAS at
Fond du Lac. Currently, he teaches a little and spends most
of his time dealing with voluminous email traffic as Senate
Steering chair for the UW Colleges. The little time left
over, he spends reading old Nancy Drew novels to his
daughter, Kyra.
