From the late 1970s to the early 1990s, he helped officers make successful transitions to civilian life. Schmalleger's philosophy of both teaching and writing can be summed up in these words: "In order to communicate knowledge we must first catch, then hold, a person's interest, be it student, colleague, or policymaker. Our writing, our speaking and our teaching must be relevant to the problems facing people today, and they must in some way help solve those problems. Daniel E.
