Mr. V. Aglinsky (shop) seems to be living in NE Ohio, according to the phone book.  I say this since his full name is uncommon and the age listed for him elsewhere fits.

Mr. Steven Brown

(click on his name to send him e-mail)

Mr. Brown (physics) taught at BHS until the early 1990s.  Now he teaches physics at a Catholic high school.  He is still teaching part time, but does just 2 classes each morning.  Doing that is better than banker's hours as he is in at 8, out at noon.  He had planned to have this year be his last, but decided to do one more.

 

Since the 1980's, two boys have been born and have grown up.  The oldest (Ken) graduated from Rhode Island School of Design in 2004, is an artist, and does video games for Insomniac (Playstation 3) in LA.  The second (Jon) just graduated from college (Olivet U., near Chicago) and works near Chicago as a photographer.

 

He and his wife (Barb) just bought a "new" house in Oberlin about a mile from the college and are in the process of getting it ready to move in.

 

He says, ÒI still have good memories of BHS.Ó  He also adds that ÒI still use the cartoons [Steve Dole} drew of me and physics stuff. I now use a SmartBoard all the time and pictures and stuff like what Steve had drawn are easy to insert into class presentation.  Students love them.Ó
