Meet the Faculty: Peter Sheldon

Peter Sheldon, professor of physics at Randolph College, talks to prospective students about what it's like to take classes with him, what he expects from students, and describes the type of student who will thrive and succeed at Randolph. Sheldon talks about his love of toys and gadgets and how that makes physics the perfect discipline for him - even when it means having to use a fire extinguisher. An avid runner, Sheldon is also assistant coach of the cross country team and an Ironman triathlete.
