Professor David Holmes Psychology Department
BY DANNY NORDSTROM
How long have you taught at University of Kansas? More than 30 years.
What courses do you teach? 1 teach a general psychology class. The unique thing is that there are 1,000 students in the class. I also teach 50 students in honors general psychology and 700 students in abnormal psychology.
Where did you attend college? Undergraduate at Northern Illinois University, graduate school at Northwestern University, and clinical training at Harvard Medical School.
What clubs/organizations were you involved with? I was a varsity swimmer for four years. I also was very involved in drama.
What inspired you to become a teacher? Originally, I wanted to be a clinical psychologist in practice, but I discovered that I was much more interested in research and teaching. I had a very influential teacher in
undergraduate, and I decided that I wanted to do what he was doing.
Could you talk about the psychology textbook your wrote? I've written a couple of them. The one that gets the most attention is titled "Abnormal Psychology." There are four editions of it. It was first published in 1990. I'm currently working on a new edition. It was estimated that it was used by about 400,000 students. I'm working on the new edition now, as well as a trade book, which is sort of like a Barnes and Noble book.
Where are you from? Chicago:
I was born and raised just a short distance from Wrigley Field.
How did you get to the University? I never intended to stay here. I came from a think tank in Princeton. I planned to stay here for two years to finish some research with a colleague. One project led to another and all of a sudden 30 years had gone by.
What are some of your hobbies?
I love exercise and distance running,
and I love cooking.
Who was the last band you saw in concert? Long Tall Marsha Ball down at the old emporium in Kansas City.
What kind of music do you listen to? Classical, string quartets.
Do you have a favorite television program? Something on public television, not really though.
Do you have an iPod? I work often times on a treadmill and I always think, "I've got to go down and buy one." I should have one, but I don't.
What is your favorite breakfast food? An omellet. I can't have them too frequently because I have high cholesterol, and I have to watch the eggs.
What is your favorite restaurant in Lawrence? I would have to say Pachamama's. It's edgy, classic American food.
Is there a sport you enjoy? Swimming. I was a swimmer in high school and college, and I still do it today.
Who is your favorite author? Oliver Sacks, a neurologist who writes about interesting, strange neurological disorders.
Where is your favorite spot to travel? Up until the dollar fell like a stone it was France, but I also like to mountain climb in Colorado.

Halstead sophomore
"I don't think that not having a warning is a good excuse. When you get on the Internet, the dangers and warnings of sharing are everywhere."
TERRIYANNA BREWER
Omaha, Neb., senior
"My freshman year I saw plenty of warnings about sharing. It's still not fair, however, for these students to be sued."
QUESTION: WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT STUDENTS BEING SUED FOR ILLEGAL FILE SHARING?
KATY MCGINNESS Wichita junior
"Rules on sharing are too harsh, and the way that they are implemented is unfair."
ANDREWTUFFIN,
ANDREW TUPFIN,
Flower Mound, Texas, freshman
"I support artists' claims that file
sharing is stealing. It's a big liability,
but I think students should get a
few chances to stop."
