Hi there! I am Brian E. Logan, Esq. I am an experienced lawyer, administrator, and teacher. I have been an editor at Wikipedia for
'''If you are one of my current students, please close this window and go away.''' "Get off of my lawn!"
'''''As of June 7, 2024 I expect, due to personal and family commitments, that I will not be editing actively for the summer. If you need an urgent response, please ask another editor, or email me.'''''
==My careers==
I am now a biology teacher, as of
I'm also licensed as an attorney and notary public. I taught [[paralegal]] studies, [[business law]], and [[criminal justice]] at [[Bryant & Stratton College]] for 19 years, 16 of those full-time. I am only licensed to practice law in [[New York]].
Previously, I held a variety of jobs, including as a [[cook]], [[administrative assistant]], [[associate attorney]], [[biology]] and [[psychology]] tutor, salesperson, and [[corporate trainer]]. I consider myself a [[polymath]]: I graduated from [[The Bronx High School of Science]], and in college, I majored in [[political science]], minored in [[biology]], and earned significant academic credits in [[chemistry]], [[physics]], [[psychology]], and [[sociology]]. I hold a [[Juris Doctor|doctorate in law]] from the [[Albany Law School|law school]] of the [[Union College|oldest nonsectarian private university in North America]], where I was a managing editor of the first volume of ''[[Albany Law Journal of Science and Technology]]''. I may not be a [[Wikipedia:Notability (academics)|notable academic]], but I was prominent at the college that I taught and even in that sector of Higher Ed. I am most proud that I was able to increase student retention from 40 % to 82 % in my programs.

Yes, I love [[science]], or as some idiot calls us, [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2014-09-24/In_the_media|one of the "science-loving censors at Wikipedia"]].
I have been a member of the [[Sierra Club]] for
In 2001, I was received into the [[Episcopal Church USA]] from the [[Roman Catholic church]].
I have been a member of the [[Democratic Party (United States)]] for many years. While I am no longer a committeeman, I had been a political consultant and an election inspector, for which I am paid (in 2012, that was about $1,500 total; in 2013-2016, and 2019 $325-$800 annually). I have '''not''' been paid, nor do I expect to be paid, for the purpose of any such editing from 2013 through
I am an attorney, but '''nothing I write on this website should be interpreted as creating an attorney-client relationship, nor of providing legal advice.'''

Wherever I personally know, or am related to, a person, I try to disclose that fact when I have edited their article. This includes classmates, pen-pals, distant relatives, and people I've met. I have indicated so on [[User:Bearian/Contributions|my contributions page]] with a [[File:Symbol confirmed.svg|18px]], which indicates a person who I know (or knew) personally. I have used a [[File:Pictogram voting keep.svg|18px]] to indicate a place that I have visited personally, or cultural phenomenon that I have experienced. I might be distantly related to [[Lindsay Lohan]].
I despise bigotry in its many forms. It also invariably involves a [[WP:BLP|BLP violation]]. I support [[Wikipedia:No queerphobia]].
I have been owned by several cats and a dog, but am currently not owned by any four-legged companion animals.
