WELCOME!

My site consists of two sets of pages.

Professional:

I am currently a psychology professor at Winona State University in Minnesota. To reveal links leading to content primarily related to my professional life, click on the word 'Professional' above.

Personal:

To reveal links leading to material of a more personal nature click on the word 'Personal' above. The boundary between the two areas is a bit fuzzy, however, with professional content spilling over to the personal side to some degree. If you would like to avoid the risk of being exposed to potentially controversial views on education, computer operating systems, politics, religion, psychology, cats, coffee, or any other topic about which people often have strong feelings, confine your viewing to the pages in the 'Professional' section.


Why CharlesScrheiber.info?

I confess to being a little embarrassed about the 'vanity' domain name, but it also seemed to be the most straightforward choice. Besides, what else would I call the site? 'FreePizza.com' might attract more visitors, but it wouldn't fit the content very well! (Yes, the name FreePizza.com is already owned, and no, they don't have any free pizza).

For a number of years I maintained personal pages hosted on the servers of the universities at which I was either a faculty member or a student. However, in 2009 I decided to move my website entirely off campus servers. In part I did this because it seemed discourteous to occupy publicly funded server space with large quantities of personal material -- particularly family photos. Also, I wanted the freedom to express views that might not be appropriate (or even legal) to post on a server owned by a division of a state government. Additionally, I wanted to make it clearer that the views expressed on my pages were solely my own: They do not represent, for example, the State of Minnesota, the Minnesota State College and University system (MnSCU), Winona State University (WSU), the WSU College of Liberal Arts, or the WSU Department of Psychology.


This site is very much a work in progress. Each summer, I manage to find about a week to work on my web pages. Some sections are still awaiting content, and some sections are badly out of date. Last summer (2009), I completely redesigned the site as part of the move from campus servers, but I hope to be able to work a bit more on content during the 2010 summer. If you encounter errors of format or function, I would like to know about it.
