LEXINGTON, Va., May 23, 2025 — Col. Jim Squire, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia Military Institute, shares that engineering is full of creativity, rather than being stoic and fixed, on the public radio program, “With Good Reason,” starting May 24. Speaking from his military experiences and years of teaching, he emphasizes that personal experiences will never be replaced in the problem-solving process by AI. 

In addition to Squire, the upcoming show, “After Service,” will feature Anthony Fontes of Tidewater Community College and Stephanie Richmond from Norfolk State University. The episode will also highlight the transition back to civilian life after military service and some of the programs available to help veterans connect their skills to careers. 

“With Good Reason” is sponsored by the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. Local broadcast times, as well as audio files of full programs and companion news features, are on the “With Good Reason” website.
