Most of my college roommates were extremely brilliant, much more than I, and this pattern continued throughout my education. In
other words, I always associated with persons who were smarter than me. This practice played a major role in my professional teaching

success and entrepreneurship. One of my roommates had a photographic memory. She would study for no more than two or three

hours and went to bed early. I had to study all night, and sometimes, I still didn’t master the subject matter. We were great roommates
in spite of her being a pretty genius. I visited her home in Huntsville, Alabama during a holiday break and it was a real treat!
