James addressed that audience with a presentation entitled, "The Mathematical Initiative."
Upon graduation, James took a job in the Telecommunications Department at the Oneida Indian Nation. He moved back to Rochester to accept a technician's position with Monarch Communications and met his wife, a math teacher. That's when he returned to Nazareth to enroll in the Post-Baccalaureate program to become a mathematics teacher.
