It's not everyone who becomes a Harvard Dad at 68 years of age.
My son Andrew Conning, 37, has been admitted to the Doctor of Education program in the Education Policy, Leadership and Instructional Practice concentration at the Harvard Graduate School of Eduacation to pursue full-time study for the 2009-2010 academic year.
He will be part of a cohort of students who bring with them not only impressive professional experience and excellent academic training, but also dedication to the profession of education.
Andy wants to become a college administrator working with foreign students.
Andy graduated from Berkeley High School in 1989. He ran cross country and track for me for three years at Berkeley High. He graduated summa cum laude from Georgetown University in 1994. He received a Masters Degree in Anthropology in Mexico City. He has lived outside the United States since his graduation from Georgetown. He has studied and/or taught in Mexico, Japan, and China.
His grandfather and great grandfather were Professors at the University of California in Berkeley and Davis. His grandfather, Dr. Percy Munson Barr, was a Professor of Forestry at Berkeley. His great grandfather Dr. Frank Adams founded the Commonwealth Club of California.
His uncle Dr. Donald Barr is an Associate Professor (Teaching) of Sociology at Stanford.
