Myers discusses how chance encounters shaped his unplanned career path, from accidentally becoming a social psychologist to writing textbooks that now reach hundreds of thousands of students worldwide. He reflects on his 50-year teaching career at Hope College, his innovative approach to connecting with students, and his philosophy that education should prepare us for an unpredictable future. Note.
