    Chris Holley, associate professor of automotive, comes to the mic for a laughter-filled episode that covers everything from his journey from being a "tread head" at Sears to his path to Penn College.

In fact, he confesses his students appreciate him most after they graduate and realize the value of their hard work. We hope you enjoy this fun conversation with a fan favorite in our automotive department.
