"It has defined my whole career"

A rainstorm that drove him into Curtiss Hall literally changed David Campbell's life. There he saw an announcement for a computer programming course, a class that came in handy during his Ph.D. studies at the University of Minnesota. "I was the only one in the program who knew about computer programming. I was hired to program 30 years of results of the Strong Interest Inventory." The original author died soon afterwards and "the inventory fell into my lap." Now know as the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory, the assessment guides individuals toward career choices and has become one of the most widely use career surveys.
