A number of the retirees expressed their willingness to continue to devote their energy and expertise to ISU. “I’m retiring not so I can do less, but so I can do more,” said Wenning. “I’m working at making ISU a national center for the preparation of physics teacher educators.” Urey added, “I’ve had many wonderful students during my years of teaching, and I will certainly miss working with them.” In reflecting on his tenure at ISU, Alferink said, “When the door of opportunity opens, walk in!”
