When John Tenny flunked out of college, he never imagined he would one day hold a Ph.D. or be a professor of education. But when he returned to college years later, he developed powerful and innovative learning strategies and graduated with honors. After teaching in the public schools, he became a university professor and then director of the Willamette University Graduate School of Education. In 1996, Illinois State University inducted him into the Education Hall of Fame for his contributions to the field of education. He taught College Study Skills for over twenty years, transforming the academic lives of many students.
