I'm Retired!

Hello!
After 37 years as an instructor in math and science at Pasadena City College, I retired in June 2006. I have thoroughly enjoyed my long career as an educator and the many thousands of students in my classes. In fact, it is a conservative estimate that I taught over 12,000 students over those years. It was always exciting to meet students who had taken my courses years before and returned to visit, and let me know what they were doing with their lives after college.
Best regards,
Mark Hayden
