Howard Booth, an EMU professor of biology, recently earned a silver medal in the pole vault (9 feet, 2 inches) in the 60-64 age group at the United States Masters National Indoor Track and Field Championships, which took place March 29-30 in Boston. Booth also placed seventh in his age group in the long jump with a leap of 14 feet, 6 inches.
Professor Booth says that his class would be about: "my multiple passions of teaching biology, a love of nature and a life long love of athletics. I would propose to weave together:
-Having taught over 18,000 Biology (Zoology & Human Physiology) students in my 43 years at EMU
-A lifetime of hiking, camping, insect photography, bird watching, wind surfing, kayaking, trail running and mountain racing----
and
-Becoming a world champion in the pole vault (Masters, Male 65-69, 2010)"
