Q&A:

Q: In a previous answer, you stated that having the experience with law school could help you with your career in gymnastics. How do you feel that law school will help with gymnastics, and what do you hope to do in the future with the sport?
A: Law school has been really good for me. It’s definitely tough to keep up with the schedule but I know that I’ll be glad when I finally get my degree. Although my interests are more in business than the actual practice of law, I think the law school has taught me not only about the law but mostly it’s taught me a different way to think about things. Law school teaches you how little you really know. It’s very humbling in many ways.
I think this education will help me no matter what I do in life. I already apply it to my own work by knowing things to look for and questions to ask. I don’t think you can ever go wrong having a law degree. But I am looking forward to being out of school and being able to focus on broadcasting, speaking and pursuing my interests in the health ad fitness industry, especially getting children involved with physical fitness.

Q: You are actively involved in beam clinics across the country. Have you ever considered coaching Olympic gymnasts the way that Steve coached you during your career?

A: That’s a natural question that I have been asked since the day I stopped competing. I love teaching beam clinics and working with kids and there coaches on “clean-up” and basics. But I also have a lot of other interests. I have spent most of my life in a gym and I have loved it. But I want to be able to get out and see what other things I can do and what other areas I can help people. Right now I have a lot of opportunities open to me and I want to see where the lead me. Something like my television show is great because I get to be part of the gymnastics process in a way that hasn’t existed before. Usually there are 2-3 events televised a year and Comcast gave me the chance to put gymnastics on the air every week. I’d like to work on getting even more gymnastics out there so people can see how great the sport is even in the four years between the Olympics.

Q: What is Steve Nunno up to these days? Do you still see him around, and is he still coaching?

A: Steve has some exciting plans in the works right now but I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag. He is doing well and spending time with his family. He also opened a gym in Norman, Oklahoma called Stars Gymnastics.

Shannon made an appearance at Ursinus College this past Sunday. Below is an article excerpt with more information:

( http://www.recordonline.com/archive/2006/01/31/sports-FF013106-01-31.html)

FURMAN'S HECTIC WEEKEND - Monroe native Jessica Furman donned her gymnastics gear twice this past weekend. Once to compete, then again to work with one of the greatest names in her sport.
On Saturday, Furman finished third in the all-around as Ursinus competed in a four-team meet at Temple University in Philadelphia.
A day later, she was breaking down the sport with an Olympic champion.
Shannon Miller, who captured gold in 1996, spent Sunday at Ursinus. Miller was filming a segment that will appear on a local television network.
Furman remembers watching those Games as a little kid on vacation in her family's motor home.
Nearly 10 years later, it was Miller watching Furman.
Furman was videotaped as she performed an event. Miller provided commentary, analyzing each attempt so viewers knew what to watch.
"She also would come up to me and correct me to make it better," Furman said. "That wasn't her intentions when she got there, but it was nice that she did it."
