Dr. Paul Fisher

Assistant Professor of Physics

"A clear night shows us the beauty of distant parts of the universe. There, the appearance of the largest things we can see is shaped by the behavior of the smallest subatomic particles we can detect. Physics lets us understand both the large and the small, and how they are related."

Instructor of Mathematics

"I love seeing students finally 'get' math! Math is the universal language (and it is used everywhere). I love the interaction with students. I wanted to influence how the next generation is taught. I expect students to work hard, but they also reap the benefits of acquiring new knowledge. WTAMU is a student-centered University."
