Virtual Adult Education
Presented by Charles E. Dickson, Ph.D.
Chuck Dickson was a teacher throughout his working life, first in a junior high near Pittsburgh, and then, after earning his Ph.D. in American and British history at Ohio State, in several colleges and universities. When he retired in 1999, he moved to Tucson and joined Grace St. Paul’s. He served on the vestry, was involved with improving the parish hall, the Weeks Room, the Bloom Room, and helped with church development (including changing the church’s electronic address). He taught many adult classes using PowerPoint presentations. When the Covid pandemic started, he secured the Rector’s permission to continue offering these adult classes online.
