Carroll refused a full-ride Entomology PhD and guaranteed job with DuPont at the Savannah River Plant, quit a Masters of Science at Georgia (UGA) and an ANSP-endorsed Ecology PhD at Delaware, plus, two MBA programs (with class-leading A's) in Texas. While still in Philadelphia, he received consecutive sales volume and client retention recognition at Northwestern Mutual national meetings in Milwaukee before moving to Texas for a sales and marketing opportunity. He is a Rotary Paul Harris.
His mom was South Dakota ΦΒΚ and taught Pediatrics at Penn.
"Dr. Jane" was 1st editor of Nelson's North American Pediatrics.
Dr. Jane Smiley Burgoon was a pioneer in a man's world.
Both of his parents became skin cancer specialists with a huge practice, seeing the rich and famous, Hall of Fame jocks, doctors, and blue collar workers - 90 to 140 each day, six days a week.

Carroll's FAMILY CAME FROM BURGUNDY, FRANCE.
The Burgoons are the Burguns from Burgundy, France, and were until our cordwainer patriarch, Jean Jacques Burgun, anglicized our family name (in 1740) while aboard Lydia sailing to Baltimore, MD in the Colonies. (See P. 91??? Ellis Island records.) Burgoon's were probably of the pugilistic Burgundiōnes who kicked butt all over Europe starting in ca. 249 AD after they returned to the mainland from Burgundarholmr Island, Denmark. The Kingdom of the Burgundians became a renown part of France --- Burgundy, France; others joined Attila's Hun army, or relocated to Swiss chalets. The artist Carroll was named after the Last Living Signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll of Carrollton,
the family patriarch's next door neighbor in Maryland.
