DescriptionFor the Geezle Oral History Project. This interview traces the background of Alfred Edgar Greer from Snyder, TX, to his public school education in Decatur, TX. It continues with his two-years of study at Decatur Baptist College, where he starred for and captained the basketball team. It examines his continued academic pursuits at North Texas State College in public school administration (BS, 1951; MS, 1954) and his membership in the Geezle Fraternity. It concentrates on his short but intensive association with fellow Geezles and their shared values as he applied those values to a 36-year leadership and teaching career in public education in eight school districts in Texas. Most notably, Mr. Greer acknowledges how values permeated his life for an enriching profession, endearing marriage, and fulfilling life.
