ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Robert E. Greenwood, Jr. Ph.D., is a student of the human socio-cultural condition in America as well as the influences from within and without the nation, melding the written and spoken word from history and the contemporary scene.
Background: His higher education has been at Furman University, Midwestern State University, North Greenville University, then back to Furman University for completion of the Bachelors degree after his course work was interrupted by service in the military. Several graduate schools offered him choices and he elected to go to the College of William And Mary and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He completed course work there and earned his Ph.D. in sociology and criminology.
Post doctoral employment began as the Director for Continuing Education at his old alma mater, Furman University. Wanting to teach, however, he accepted a professorship at North Greenville University. When the dean asked him to take the job of Registrar and Director of Institutional Research, he accepted.
He has studied law, and added Sociology and Criminal Justice to his credit as he actively sought more overall education.
Since retirement, he has been a student of constitutional law, studying the thoughts behind the founders in writing that document. He believes, "It's the most pressing problem in government today as we have many activist lawyers and politicians who have little expertise in the Constitution or government."

The Coffee Culture in the USA
It wasn't until I moved to the US that I started drinking coffee regularly and became what they call in the Netherlands a 'koffieleut', which translates literally into 'coffee socialite.' Although the average European drinks more coffee per year than the average American, the cultural importance and its effects on the average European seems to me smaller than that on the average American.
