The Legacy Project: William David Greer, Jr., DTE
Greer, William David, Jr.; Moye, Johnny J.
Technology and Engineering Teacher, v80 n2 p22-25 Oct 2020
Many industrial arts, technology education, and now technology and engineering education leaders have made their mark on the technology and engineering teaching profession. Their legacy is something that members of the profession enjoy and have a responsibility to continue and build upon. This is the sixteenth in a series of articles entitled "The Legacy Project." The Legacy Project focuses on the lives and actions of leaders who have forged the the profession into what it is today. Members of the profession owe a debt of gratitude to these leaders. One simple way to demonstrate that gratitude is to recognize these leaders and some of their accomplishments. The focus in this issue is Dr. William David Greer, Jr. In this interview, Greer responds to the following two questions: (1) Like most people in the field of industrial arts, you started by being a teacher in the public schools. Please describe your teaching experience so that others will know what was being emphasized during that time in history; and (2) After teaching, you became an industrial arts administrator for a very large school system, the Fort Worth (TX) Independent School District. What were your responsibilities (such as curriculum development, etc.), the size of the system (number of teachers, number of students in I.A.), your nagging problems, and your successes?
