David and his wife home schooled both daughters for 8 years and will be celebrating 20 years of marriage this summer. David has been active in leadership for many Christian groups over the last 15 years. He is a Licensed Lay Minister in the Free Methodist denomination and participates in leading non-denominational Christian church services at the Kuparuk camp where he lives when on location in Alaska.
Almost four years ago, David and his family moved from Eagle River, Alaska to Silver Spring, Maryland so his oldest daughter Stephanie could attend a prestigious ballet school in the Washington D. C. area. Although the commute between Silver Spring and Kuparuk every two weeks takes time, David is able to sleep on airplanes and enjoys reading and meeting new people.

The Civil Engineering program is fortunate to have many friends who help the department to maintain academic quality despite continuing reductions in state funding. One of the most common ways of helping is through donations to the department. Each year, the department chair distributes a message to friends of CE requesting consideration in future charitable giving and thanking those who have donated previously.
Pictures of newly graduated Civil Engineering students are provided. These were taken at the College Graduation Celebration in May of the year indicated.
