Don Veller - Florida State's Head Football Coach 1948

Don Veller was a decorated halfback at Indiana University where he was Hoosier MVP as a senior. After leaving IU, he coached at Hanover College and as an assistant to Indiana. He came to Florida State as head football coach in 1948 and in five seasons his teams went 31-12-1. He gave Florida State its first football victory, its first winning season and one of three undefeated seasons in FSU history. In his first three seasons in Tallahassee, his squads won 24 of 26 games and he made FSU a small college Southern grid power. Veller later became Seminole golf coach, serving in that post on three different occasions and amassing a 78-23 dual meet record, a winning percentage of .772. FSU's golf course is named after this legendary figure.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
