148 INTERVIEW POINT NORTHWOOD TIMES INTERVIEWS DAVID E. FRY, NAMED OUTSTANDING FACULTY MEMBER. IN A RECENT SURVEY AMONG TEN NORTH- WOOD STUDENTS, DAVID E. FRY WAS SELECTED THE “MOST INTERESTING” AND “BEST-LIKED ALL-AROUND INSTRUCTOR”. INTERVIE WPOINT, RELATES THE REASONS FOR THIS PROVOCATIVE FIGURE ON THE NORTHWOOD CAMPUS. Beginning life in Detroit, Michigan, 24 years ago, David Fry graduated from the Howe Military School, Howe, Indiana, a Department of Defense Honor School. He attended Hillsdale College and was awarded Bachelor of Arts degrees in Economics and Business Administration with a major in Management. He ts currently an MBA candidate at Wayne State University. His oc- cupational background includes employment as branch manager for the Michigan Bank in Detroit, where he intended to pursue the banking career until he acquired a deep and devoted interest in the economic field. Today Fry lives on the Northwood campus and is an instructor in the economics and business management curriculum. HOW DID YOU CHOOSE YOUR CAREER IN TEACHING? Actually, I fell into it by mistake. As a business management senior taking courses to satisfy a second degree in economics my department head asked me to help him teach an Econ 201 class. I got so wound up in it he had to remind me it was his class. He’d arrive at class to see me already expounding at the podium. The experience was so rewarding that I decided to try my hand at it professionally if the opportunity should present itself. - - - by Bob France WHAT QUALITY MAKES YOU INTERESTING? Well, how do you answer that? You're asking me to bare my ego. Seriously, I hope the reason is that I’m interested. Interested in education. If I’m interested in the world around me perhaps the student is infected with interest too, and that, of course, ts what education is all about. Education is a gas, the most natural and vital thing a person can do. A human being is meant to grow and to learn, and if I can help that process I'l be happy. “T am an individual, I have an identity, I prefer to stand or fall on my own merits.” MR. FRY, IN CONCLUSION, WHAT TO YOU IS THE MOST POWERFUL WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE? My puckish nature tempts me toward an expletive you couldn't print, but I shall resist the temptation. Seriously, there’s no doubt about the most powerful word for me. Freedom! Individual freedom if I may use a phrase. The human being was meant to be free, free to do his best as long as he does not interfere harm- fully with the lives of others. I feel very strongly about this, and I would die for it . . . no hesitation. To live without freedom is not to live at all. It’s the most wonderful gift we have, so I guess that would make it the most wonderful word.
