Quite often, while receiving his own education at various colleges, he taught courses to undergraduate students in health education.

John was proud of the fact that he had written the first school song while teaching at the Technical College. Later, John taught at the Illinois College of Podiatric Medicine. While living in the Chicago area, John Burr worked for the American Medical Association.
Dr. John W. Burr, received his Doctoral Degree in Higher Education Administration at Brigham Young University in 1980. Professor Burr taught at BYU, ASU and DePaul Universities. John's love of his country, love the gospel and also his sense of humor will surely be missed.
