Many of our students already know Ms. Watkins as one of our developmental instructors and the night-time assistant in the library. Get to know a little bit more!
Lincoln Eagle (LE): Where are you from?
Therese Watkins (TW): I grew up around Dayton, and graduated from High School in Xenia.
LE: Where did you go to college?
TW: I have an Associate’s degree in Computer Administration from RETS, a Bachelor’s degree in English from Wright State and a Master’s of Education from Wright State. I’m currently enrolled at Wright State’s Master of Information Systems program.
LE: What do you like best about teaching?
TW: I like the feeling that I’m helping students, and hopefully, helping to make their lives better.
LE: What is your favorite book?
TW: The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien.
LE: If you were to do something other than teach, what would you want to do?

LE: Do you have any hobbies?
TW: I’m a geek. I like attending renaissance festivals—I get dressed up in renaissance costumes.
LE: What kind of costumes?

TW: Yes, a real sword. I also have a collection of swords.
LE: What is your favorite thing about Dayton?
TW: It’s a cheap place to live!
