I got my meteorology degree in '95, although I already had a Physics degree from '86 when it was U. Lowell. Dr. Tang was still there until '94. Most students feared him, but being an older student, he didn't scare me and was always supportive because I made an extra effort. Chancellor Hogan really wanted to ax the program, and my advisor, Dr. Colby, was the only full-time professor one semester. But a very influential man from the Atmospheric Research Center would not allow that, so the program was saved and expanded, and I got my Masters there in '04.
I'm sort of still in the business, working on requirements for the next generation of geostationary weather satellites.
