We lived in Amsterdam, Netherlands for 2 years and returned to St. Louis-he to work on an NDEA grant Ph.D and me to teach in Francis-Howell and Pattonville districts for 4 years. We went to Purdue University where I taught music education to education majors. In one year's time we went to Bowling Green University in Ohio and then to Oberlin 1974.
