Richy Kless '74, '78G, '82SCE — Faithful Friar

Before retiring this summer, Richy Kless spent half a century at Providence College as a student, instructor, and staff member. In this episode, he reflected on his undergraduate years, where he was captain of the club football team, met his wife, Terri, a member of the Class of 1976, and had a conversion experience that deepened his faith. Kless also discussed his abrupt start to teaching non-traditional students in the School of Continuing Education — while simultaneously taking fire science courses himself — and what he learned from years in Student Affairs, working in Residence Life and Community Standards.
