Williamsburg teacher featured in Kirkwood newsletter

Williamsburg teacher Joe Degen was featured in the winter newsletter of Kirkwood Community College’s Iowa County center this month. Degen is social studies teacher for grades 7-12 at Williamsburg Jr./Sr. High School. “At first I wanted it to cover some of my general education requirements,” said Degen in the newsletter, explaining why he took classes through Kirkwood. “Then when I found out where I wanted to go I tried to take them to cover as much non-major stuff that I could.” Degen said in the newsletter that taking Kirkwood classes while he was in high school helped him find more time to take the classes he wanted to take when he got to college. “It also helped me get more general education classes completed so I had more time to focus on my majors (history and education).” Kirkwood’s Michael Jacobsen was a big help to Degen during his time at Kirkwood Iowa County Center, he says in the newsletter. “…[D]ue to his experience as a former social studies teacher, I was able to talk about my career path and a potential four-year plan before I even knew what college I was going to pick,” Degen said. “When I got to
