Regarding Continuing Education in 2022

Stephen A. Nutt and I have a mutual associate, Katherine R. Bozoian, R.A., who was a roommate of mine in St. Louis, 1985-1987. 

Stephen A. Nutt attended and graduated from Kansas State University 1978-May, 1983.  

I, Theresa Marie Bextermiller, attended and graduated from Kansas State University 1978-May, 1983.


She started out studying in the “Architectural Studies”, through Interior Design, program at Univ. of Mo.-Columbia, but, transferred to KSU 1980-1981, and is employed in her own company, Bozoian Group Architects, in Brentwood, Mo. 

https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurajbozoian/?ppe=1 - Laura J. Bozoian is Kathy's younger sister.  Coach reduced their North American stores to 222, according to this article: http://fortune.com/2017/05/24/coach-victor-luis-stuart-vevers/ .  See three 2s.  

More recently, Laura Bozoin works in Austin, Tx.  Bozoian Group Architects is not located in Brentwood, Mo. anymore.


Katherine Bozoian graduated Summa Cum Laude from KSU, in May, 1983, although she never lived on campus, was never pictured in a yearbook, nor attended three years of KSU's Architectural Dept. classes.  She posted this designation on LinkedIn.com- this has since been deleted.  I knew her two years at KSU - my Senior and 5th year.  I did not know her my Junior year.

Regarding Summa Cum Laude was posted on Google blogspot and facebook.com in 2015, into 2016 and 2017. http://cgstudentloandischarge.blogspot.com/
I found the OZ Journal, from 1982, where Katherine Bozoian was a Managing Editor:  http://ozjournal.org/journals/tocs/v04.html .

Neither of these people have a graduate degree.
I have contacted ABET, Inc., and, many people, regarding my graduate degree.


I was referred to Pratt Institute by the former Head of the Dept. of Architecture at Kansas State University, Mr. Eugene R. Kremer, F.A.I.A. He told me he had lived in the Pratt area, and I know that he was licensed in Architecture in N.Y.

This is Eugene Kremer:



I could not find any info on his parents John and Ida (Applegreen) Kremer.  There are some Applegreen family members buried in Kings County cemeteries:  Israel Appelgreen (1868-1914) - Find a Grave Memorial and Dora Seif Applegreen (1880-1942) - Find a Grave Memorial.



Perhaps he was referrng to the fact that his wife's parents lived (and are buried) in the Queens area, which is not far from Pratt, and, some of his mother's family is buried in the Brooklyn area.  There are not any other historical records showing a connection to Pratt Institute.  He told me that he had lived in the Pratt area, in his office, and I followed Katherine Bozoian, who had just talked to him, and, was leaving, at the time that I arrived, at the door, to his office.

I did not know that Katherine Bozoian had graduated Summa Cum Laude until seeing this on LinkedIn.com.  I know that she did not know but a few in our graduating class, and, she knew these from working on the OZ Journal.

My Move to New York, do you know Katherine R. Bozoian and Eugene R. Kremer - dated June 30, 2022.
