Lookin’ at U — Bob Pawloski, Ed.D.

That’s the theme behind a series in UNMC Today called “Lookin’ at U.” Each Thursday, we will randomly select a medical center employee to feature.

This week, we feature Bob Pawloski, Ed.D., coordinator of the Munroe-Meyer Institute’s Interdisciplinary Center for Program Evaluation.

Here, in his own words, are some fun facts about Bob:

  • Along with teaching math and computer literacy, I coached football, track and wrestling during my 20-year career at Ralston Middle School. Sara Cizek-Going (Government Relations Specialist) was a student in my computer class.

  • I’ve ridden my bicycle in RAGBRAI seven times – most recently this past summer. My goal now is to do Tour de Nebraska.

  • I am a grandparent to three beautiful girls (8, 6 and 3) by my daughter in Lincoln, and my son is the father of a very energetic boy in Papillion, who will be 3 in December. My daughter is due with another grandchild in June. I love to toss the grandchildren around and they like to say, “Grandpa Bob is for climbing on!”

  • The love of my life is a UNMC College of Nursing graduate. We were high school classmates in Council Bluffs and she is an associate dean of research and clinical scholarship at Texas Woman’s University College of Nursing.

  • At one point in my 15 year career with the University of Nebraska system implementing and evaluating educational technology projects, I managed the websites for the National Council for the Lewis & Clark Bicentennial and the Nebraska Bicentennial Commission. It got in my blood — I am a confirmed “Clarkie,” having served as a president of the local Mouth of the Platte Chapter of the Lewis & Clark Trail Heritage Foundation. I have enjoyed reading the Lewis & Clark Journals and visiting many parts of the Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail.
