"Irrepressible: From a Dropout to a Professor Emeritus" - Never Accept No for an Answer

July 6, 2012 - PRLog -- How can one person make a difference? Irrepressible: From a Dropout to a Professor Emeritus is the uplifting memoir of an educator who traveled the world for 30 years to help in developing countries.

Author Jim Hughes became a dropout at 18, but ended up a professor emeritus at 65. This is his amazing and rewarding story.
“As I traversed up the muddy ruts of the dirt road on the southern slope of Mount Kilimanjaro, I could see the little school nestled in a small grove of acacia trees. The teacher and her 30 students were waving to me. ‘Thank you for coming,’ the teacher said. ‘I need your help. I have nothing.’ I was faced with impossible situations that I was expected to make ‘possible.’ I learned never to accept ‘no’ for an answer. I was Irrepressible.”
