Summer Seminar can be a life-changing experience; I know, because it happened to me. I graduated from the University of Colorado in 1984 with a degree in economics and plans to go into banking or the stock brokerage business. At the time, however, the Colorado Springs economy was in shambles following a national savings and loan crisis, and the city had earned the unfortunate reputation as the nations foreclosure capital. With few job opportunities on the horizon, I went to work in my fathers coin shopa temporary six-month job. Those six months are now going on 28 years thanks, in large part, to Summer Seminar. By 1986 I began to realize that my temporary job was turning into a career. I had a lot to learn and, with the encouragement of my father, enrolled in a Summer Seminar grading class. It was eye-opening. To this day, I have vivid memories of Bill Fivaz passing around his sets of mercury dimes and buffalo nickels, all neatly organized in Capital plastic folders. I remember several bigger-than-life instructors: J.P. Martin, Rick Montgomery, Leonard Albrecht and Michael Fahey, to name a few. Most importantly, I remember returning to my dads shop armed with all of this new knowledge and a strong desire to apply what I learned. Summer Seminar gave me the numismatic bug and Ive never turned back. Today I own my fathers business and serve as president of the ANA. Summer Seminar became part of my annual life cycle; I attended as a student for several years before, beginning in the mid-1990s, becoming a grading instructor. Ill teach grading again this year and hope to do so for many more years to come. Each year, whether as a student or an instructor, I learn lessons that I can apply to my business and my hobby nearly every day. As a student, you can expect great instructors, enormous enthusiasm, loads of fun and a genuinely rewarding experience. If youre like the vast majority of Summer Seminar students, youll come back againand againand may be, eventually, as an instructor. After 44 years, Summer Seminar has become that rare event that both stays the same and changes, simultaneously. Each year theres an infusion of new students, instructors and classesall balanced by the return of old students, familiar classes and experienced instructors. This year is no different. Our most popular classes, grading and counterfeit detection, return for an encore along with other popular standbys including courses on ancients, paper money and world currency. This year, youll have a chance to take Think Like a Thief: Security for Dealers and Collectors, taught by Col. Steve Ellsworth. Prue Fitts will teach a fascinating class on Women in Power and Other Feisty Females on Coinage and in Art for the first time in several years. Our class, Modern Minting Process: Errors and Varieties, will feature a chance to mint a coin on a Grabener coin press. Session 2 features a new class on The Coinage of Charles Barber and an old standby with a new twist: Creating a Winning Numismatic Exhibit. For paper money aficionados with a fondness for storytelling, youll be hard-pressed to pass up National Bank Notes: Bringing History to Life. Nothing enhances the enjoyment of our hobby more than education; its why Summer Seminar is so special. I hope to see you there. Tom Hallenbeck, ANA President
