Wayne Barrer put it best: “I love working with computers!” Something he enjoys most is working with computer-aided design. For that reason, he is a certified AutoCAD instructor. You would think that someone this interested in computers would only have time for that. Think again. This computer enthusiast is also an outdoors man who lists fishing and camping as some of his favourites. He also took part in the Cubs, Scouts and Venture as a leader for over 15 years. When asked why he would choose St. Lawrence College as an educational institution, Wayne proceeded to tell us an interesting story. “I went to Queen’s. I would have never thought of going to college. When I went back to school [for Electrical Engineering] I was looking at universities, and I found it to be really theoretical. I wanted something else, to get into it, hands on. Somebody told me to look at the College, and I was absolutely flabbergasted at the quality of education that the College had to offer. It was just incredible.” To further back up his beaming praises of St. Lawrence College, he says “In fact, my son comes here. I would recommend the College to anyone.” Wayne holds a degree in Math and Physics from Queen’s University, he also went to St. Lawrence College where he received an Electronics Diploma. He has worked in construction where he did surveying, managing and estimating. He worked for a manufacturing firm, which he computerized in 1978. He was proud of that accomplishment, and this only further displays his perceptiveness in the development of technology. Wayne has also worked at Communication Research Centre. CRC is the Canadian government’s leading centre of expertise in satellite communications, located at Shirley’s Bay, west of Ottawa.. Upon receiving his Electronics Diploma, he was offered a position to teach through St. Lawrence College, Kingston. Wayne has taught on all three St. Lawrence College campuses. |
