Life really began for Claire when she went off to college and became a Texas Longhorn!  After receiving her Master's degree from Emory University, she began her career as a nurse educator at Texas Woman's University. 

Claire took some time away from education to have more time as a mom, but eventually returned to help found Georgia Baptist College of Nursing in 1989.  She served as their Dean of Students for twelve years until they merged with Mercer in 2001.  2008 is her nineteenth year in Student Affairs work! 

LITTLE KNOWN FACT:  She has been happily married to the same man for 36 years!
