　　Zachariah S Schrecengost, a State University of New York alumnus. He graduated summa cum laude with a BS degree having completed majors in Physics, Software Engineering, and Applied Mathematics. He took the Advanced Electromagnetic Theory course with Dr Ilie and was thrilled to be involved in creating this book. He brings to the project both the fresh perspective of the student taking electrodynamics, as well as the enthusiasm and talent of an alumnus who is an electrodynamics and upper level mathematics aficionado. Mr Schrecengost works as a software engineer in Syracuse and is preparing to begin his graduate school studies in physics.
