Dr. Stephenson: I don ' t have any dislikes about students. If I hove a class of soy 40 students, and every day usually the students who are talking ore the ones who are alive and have something to soy, yet that is annoying and you hove to say, Hey, Listen, but that ' s only a small matter. I like the fact that they keep coming back. Mast of the students work and they ' re trying. They ' re trying to get their degree and that ' s what I like. What arm your hobbims? Dr. Stephenson: I love tennis, that ' s a hobby, but It ' s also a way of life. I don ' t ploy often enough. €xercise is essential to me. I take a walk: I hove a basset hound named Oliver.
