school in the East and in California, and obtained an MA in Political
Science at University of California, San Francisco. Feeling worn-out by

attracted to a career in federal service. During this time he kept
himself intellectually engaged in part by pursuing his lifelong love of
European history, which led him to earn an MA in History at California
State University, Northridge. Now retired from federal service, Jack

teaching Western Civilization at Pierce College , translating Polish

organization dedicated to teaching and learning. Teaching for him is an
expression of his many years of interest in history and in particular in
the Western tradition.
