Myrna DuBoisHome Economics Education
1966
I lived at Love Memorial Hall, during its heyday, and sharing all those experiences with such fine and intelligent gals was a real high light. I enjoyed all my classes, especially clothing and design.
I taught Home Economics for one year, then husband Lon and I moved to Saskatchewan, where he got his degree in theology. During that time I worked as a staff supervisor at the University of Sask. For nine years after that I raised our girls and filled the role of pastor's wife. Finally, in 1982, I was able to move into my chosen career, Extension. I served for 27 years, and taught a lot of programs related to family life education, across Northeast Nebraska. I also wrote a lot for UNL, mostly 4-H projects, and a few NebGuides.
Solid knowledge in a number of fields, both Home Economics (Family and Consumer Science), and other general knowledge courses, set me in good stead to teach many audiences and feel comfortable with my background.
Work hard and take your education seriously. Stick to solid basic values.
