Dr. Pohl is back. He teaches BCIS right here at our beloved UNT!

[BonfireBrian]

Dr. Pohl is a class act and a very intelligent man. I hope he stays at North Texas until he's ready to retire.

WHOA!?!? It is true! Amazing! Also kind of sad, no? Wouldn't he be happier as a president or administrator at another school? I have to say I'm kind of shocked.

---Maybe he wants to be retired (nothing sad about that) and doen't want to be full-time anything. Also when I was at NTSU we had had three guys in the math department that passed around the chairmanship... they all prefered to teach instead. For what it is worth I am doing the same as Pohl... I have two (sometimes three) college classes.... I don't really want any more to do, but I enjoy the interaction with students and having something productive to do a couple of days a week. Being an administrator can be very confining and takes a lot of time if you do the job properly.

This is good news.

Dr Pohl really enjoys working at North Texas and his wife has a job that she loves at TWU. They re very active and involved in the community, and they hopefully will make this their home until they retire.

Dr. Pohl played a major role in the creation of The Mean Green Village. Remember the video of Dr. Pohl and others with their shovels as they broke ground for the new Athletic Center....Dr. Pohl said "we aren't going back". We will be indebted to him forever. I for one am so glad he is still at UNT!

More important, does he have Mean Green season tickets?

[Quoner]

I heard he now thinks BCIS is the school's window to the world...
