After teaching Technical and Business Writing at Penn State for ten years, Professor Pat Weaver decided it was time for a career change. She considered her options, and accounting seemed the most attractive avenue. Her career path led to a public accounting firm, which, oddly enough, handled the Juniata College account. However, one thing was still missing – teaching.

    Professor Weaver joined Juniata's Accounting, Business and Economics department 12 years ago. She spent two years away from JC while completing her Master's degree in Business Administration at Penn State. The classes she teaches include Accounting, Finance, and Management Information Systems. She is also teaching the College Writing Seminar this year.

    Although she feels the grind of teaching four different subjects during the spring semester, she still enjoys the classroom more than any other work environment. This is particularly true with the influx of new members in the department. She commented, "It has been a really fun time with the new staff and their enthusiasm."

    A C.P.A, Professor Weaver has co-authored a book on business writing with her husband, a Penn State English professor. She enjoys playing on the computer, The Phantom of the Opera, Godiva Chocolate, and Starbucks ice cream.
