I finally took a hard look at all that will be required for my eventual PhD in Physics at UMKC. Daunting but am so very much excited. This will all have to be accomplished while I live my life - raising a teenage daughter, the job (senior software developer), keeping something of a personal life (can't give up the buds), traveling, as well as the clubs I'm part of... So not sure when I'll finally accomplish this task but here are the physics classes required of the degree.

Who are my inspirations?
Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman, Brian Greene, Michio Kaku, Keith Ashman (UMKC), and all of my geeky friends who love this stuff as much as I do.
