“…something I return to again and again in my [DMC] reveries, is that I was the first one brave enough to get out on the dance floor and “do the twist” as Chubby Checker demanded.”

Meet Barbara Kerr Scott, PhD, Class of '62

Out of all the schools I have attended, Del Mar College was the hardest, most rewarding, and most inspiring. I wasn’t always a particularly good student, yet I have always loved and collected good information, ideas, and techniques.

And something I remember fondly is that I was the first one brave enough to get out on the dance floor and “do the twist” as Chubby Checker demanded. I had some excellent teachers (Mrs. Creighton and Joe Cain), and I worked in the library, I think for 35¢ an hour! I learned about myself at Del Mar, and those lessons and preferences that I discovered helped build the path my life has taken.
