More About Dan Condon
My rock is my wife & son, my network of friends in Boulder, Colo., and my family back in Wisconsin.
I really love live music at Red Rocks Amphitheater (my all-time favorite is The Avett Brothers).
My favorite thing about Eagle Rock is implementing effective practices on campus and helping support schools nationally in doing the same.
Students inspire me when they take risks in order to reach their goals.
