His education at the URochester allowed him to explore the interconnection between his broad interests. When he first came to Rochester in 1973, a teenage Bob had the impression that he would be done learning at the end of college. Instead, those years launched a lifelong career of discovery.<\/p>\n<p>Bob recognizes the valuable life skills that he gained at Rochester\u2014how to think and solve problems. As a Joseph C. Wilson Scholar, Bob had the opportunity to take any course across the University, and he made the most of it. In addition to his undergraduate workload, he took classes in the School of Medicine and Dentistry, which were foundational for him and his future work.<\/p>\n<p>He credits his full scholarship for not only making it possible to pursue his education, but to find a career. At the age of 23, he completed a master\u2019s degree, and he started his first real job at the URochester Medical Center.<\/p>\n<p>Bob spent his career working in community hospitals as a medical physicist, while also bringing his learnings about physics and technology into the national discussion, as an advisor to the Food and Drug Administration. He founded and led Upstate Medical Physics, a regional practice, and was the senior vice president of Landauer Medical Physics, a national organization, collaborating with medical physicists to deliver services to individual health care facilities and larger integrated delivery networks. He is also a past president of the New York State Radiological Society.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column]<blockquote class='blockquote_shortcode with_quote_icon' style='width: 500px%;border-left-width: 10px; '><span style=\"font-size: 32px; line-height: 32px;\" class=\"icon_quotations_holder\"><i class=\"mkd_icon_font_awesome fa fa-quote-left \" ><\/i><\/span><h6 class='blockquote_text' style=\"color: #15234a;\"><span>As people come into earshot of the music, I observe an astounding transformation.

Another day, two staff members wearing &#8220;Interpreter&#8221; badges stayed for an extended chat, eventually saying, \u2018We really needed this now.\u2019 I recognized the feeling of coming off a difficult case, having worked in hospitals myself for 40 years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mabelle Pizzutiello also spent decades working in a hospital setting after earning her degree in nursing at the URochester. She values the lifelong friends she met as a student and continues to stay involved through alumni events at the School of Nursing, such as their annual Clare Dennison Lecture, where she finds she is always learning something new.<\/p>\n<p>For Mabelle, a lifelong career in nursing has meant that learning and teaching are always connected. For each new skill gained from her instructors, she was immediately responsible for passing it on to another student, reinforcing her education and the teamwork that is central to the profession.<\/p>\n<p>While a student, Mabelle vividly remembers responding to the Mohawk Airlines plane crash in 1963.
