BOLIVAR, MO – Dr. Bev Harris has been notified that his biography will appear in two consecutive volumes of the Marquis Who’s Who in America, the 61st and 62nd editions, published in 2007 and 2008 respectively.  Professor Harris taught mathematics forty years before his retirement, two years at Humansville High School, two years at the University of Missouri Columbia, and 36 years in Bolivar at Southwest Baptist University.  More than fifty of his former students have at least master’s degree in mathematics.

Since his retirement 18 years ago, Harris has devoted his time and energy to his family, his church, social ministries, tennis, and writing.  At age 80, he still drives to Springfield three times a week to play indoor tennis.  He finds great satisfaction helping deserving, needy families in Polk County, Mo.
