<\/a>Ms. Jozell Brister<\/p><\/div>\n
Ms. Brister, who teaches Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, and Money and Banking, taught at Abilene High School before beginning to teach at ACU in 1980. At Abilene High, Ms. Brister taught typing and several different business subjects. However, \u201cI never did teach accounting,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n
In addition to teaching, Ms. Brister enjoys reading and spending time outdoors in various capacities. In fact, she and her brother share a bass boat, which they take fishing on Fort Phantom.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love to go out in that boat,\u201d says Ms. Brister. \u201cI love to catch fish. I just love to do that.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Another of Ms. Brister\u2019s hobbies is walking with a group of \u201creally fine ladies\u201d from her neighborhood. The group includes a wide range of ages, and Ms. Brister really enjoys spending time with them. \u201cWe all walk and we know each other really well. I feel like we\u2019re really good friends,\u201d she explains. \u201cWe keep up with the health of their dogs and the health of their husbands.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked how she spends her vacation time, Ms. Brister\u2014unsurprisingly\u2014spends time outside. \u201cWell, in the summer, for years, my sister-in-law and I and my great-nephew and great-niece would go to Red River New Mexico,\u201d explains Ms. Brister. \u201cWe\u2019d usually stay about a week and rent a cabin up there. It was hiking and fishing, which we all like to do. My whole family likes to do that\u2026it\u2019s good family time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms. Brister, who is well known for her kind and compassionate heart, is famous for giving her students candy on holidays like Halloween and Valentine\u2019s Day. The only thing better than how much Ms. Brister\u2019s students like her is how much she still enjoys her job, even after thirty-three years.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell you know, when I\u2019m in the classroom, that\u2019s the best part,\u201d Ms. Brister explains, a smile beginning to form. \u201cGetting ready is not the best part…but once I\u2019m in there, I like it. I like it a lot.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
