Biography

Robert Aguirre CV (PDF)

I have been teaching literature and composition since the early 1990s and can honestly say that I have enjoyed every class I have ever taught. When I am not teaching, my time is filled by family, reading, movies, working out, and a little Xbox. And, of course, in the fall I follow the trials and tribulations of Husker Football and Volleyball.
