Meet the retired dentist
who has come all the way from Fairfield, Ohio to go back to school at Niagara
College. Davis began his first year of NC's Brewmaster program in September. He
may soon be a brewmaster, but one of the College’s newest first-year students
at the Teaching Brewery is much more familiar with the title ‘doctor.’
Dr. Wade Davis began his new life as a student in NC’s
Brewmaster and Brewery Operations Management program in September at the age of
73, after five decades as a dentist in Fairfield, Ohio. Davis noted that he was
on the verge of retirement after 48 years in dentistry when he began to
consider sinking his teeth into a new venture.
“I knew that I wanted to remain actively productive,” he said. ‘I almost immediately started to think about enrolling in the Brewmaster program as a first step toward a second career.”
