5.0 out of 5 stars The journey of an educator…., July 17, 2013

This review is from: 50 Shades of Grades: My Journey Through Wacademia (Paperback)

This book was an interesting read not only about the journey of a lifelong educator, but also tales about history of certain aspects of Las Vegas history that many are not aware of. I think many take for granted the sacrifices that educators make in order to be in the classroom. What I thought was interesting was the opportunities Dr. Nixon has found outside the classroom. I did attain my Masters through the Las Vegas campus of NOVA Southeastern University but had no idea as to how they came to Las Vegas. Dr. Nixon has used his personal experiences to impact a variety of people, and they have in turn impacted him. I always enjoy reading about the Old Las Vegas and this book does not disappoint. The stories about the side of the Las Vegas that most locals do not experience are also interesting. I would love to know who Mr. Pike really was….

5.0 out of 5 stars Go West Young Man, July 23, 2013
By
Donald L. Taylor – See all my reviews
This review is from: 50 Shades of Grades: My Journey Through Wacademia (Paperback)

Centuries ago, Horace Greeley said, “Go West young man and grow up with the country.” This is an account of a bewildered young ethnic boy from a small mill town in the East and his quest to find an identity and meaning in life. Where and how he ultimately finds his role is ironic. His journey is strewn with pratfalls, disappointments and surprises. Andy’s story is fascinating, you will want to meet him and be his companion!
