Professor Robert Fries has 38 years of teaching experience in higher education and over two decades of making computer technology more accessible and understandable to the public.

Professor Fries was the Associate Director of the Fels Planetarium in Philadelphia prior to coming to Anderson College to teach in 1974. In 2004, he received the Excellence in Teaching award at Anderson University. He has retired from full-time teaching, but his love of education brings him back to the classroom from time to time.

Previously, his post-graduate work included field work in Antarctica, where a mountain is named after him as a result of his research on the Aurora Australis (similar to the Northern Lights). The accompanying picture illustrates this awesome and dramatic natural phenomenon. This image has not be altered; the sky actually looks like this.
