After my service I married Kristine Strenge. Kristine had also served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Honduras. I then attended Rutgers University in New Jersey and completed two additional years of graduate course work.

In 1994, I was hired by Black Hawk College to teach Geology, Geography and Astronomy. My courses web page can be found at http://facweb.bhc.edu/academics/science/harwoodr/Index.htm
