Price served as an associate professor of mathematics at Lamar University from 1970 until his retirement in 2006. He continues to teach part time at Beaumont’s Ozen High School and as a volunteer preparing young students in Southeast Texas for academic competitions. Price joined the Lamar faculty at the invitation of Lloyd Cherry, then dean of the LU College of Engineering, soon after completing his doctorate. Early in his Lamar career, Price requested and received a one-year leave of absence for additional studies. He earned a master’s degree in religion at the Yale Divinity School at the age of 40, his self-imposed deadline for formal education. He continues to learn on his own, reading a minimum of three hours a day on varied topics and working on mathematical problems.Price previously was honored with the creation of the Richard L. Price Endowed Scholarship for Engineering Students at Lamar University to mark his 70th birthday. The scholarship was made possible by donations from friends and former students.
