Do you really know Professor Armour?

Did you know Associate Professor Luke Armour is in a band? No, I’m not making this up, he plays the bass guitar! 
 
Aside from public relations, Armour is very passionate about music … and peanuts with shells? 
 
I know what you’re thinking: “Professor Armour tells horrible dad jokes, and all of his classes are lectures, how can he be interesting?” Walk into his office, and that is interesting enough (kidding). But seriously, someone needs to help him clean his office. 
 
Armour has an interesting story. He currently teaches Public Relations Tactics and Case Studies.
 
“I can’t pick a favorite class to teach. In Case Studies, I like watching students go ‘oh I get this.’ In PR Tactics, I like watching students progress in their presentation skills. I have a favorite piece of each class,” Armour said. 
 
Similar to classes, Armour could not choose a favorite colleague (to be expected). 
 
Me: “Who is your favorite colleague? Who brightens your day every time you see them?”
 
Armour: “All of PRKent. There are six of us, and I love all of us. It’s amazing. We all get along, and we all work together. We help each other. It’s amazing.”
 
Me: “Do you feel like you would consider them your friends?”
 
Armour: “Absolutely. Yeah.”
 
Although he expressed his love for his students and colleagues, Armour said in another life, he would be a rockstar with long hair. (This was an interesting thought, considering his current situation, but I support it.)
 
Speaking of being a rockstar, don’t forget he plays the guitar … in a band. With other teachers. What is this band called, you ask? Drum roll, please … Mental Faculties! 
 
Armour said he has always been into music and playing instruments, and he enjoys playing with fellow teachers. He claims he tells us these things on the first day of class, but all I can remember is hearing about Star Wars and superheroes. 
 
As students, we oftentimes forget our professors have lives outside of teaching. Next time you have a few minutes after class, consider asking your professor what they like to do in their free time, it may surprise you. 
 
New dad joke by Armour: “Do you know why I like jokes about elevators? Because they work on so many levels” (cue the dad laughter).
