Since athletic training is such a hands on profession, Hawkins does his best to take the same approach in his courses, ever mindful of what the brain is doing while in class. Hawkins holds a firm belief that education changes lives, 正因为如此, he loves to be involved in that process. One of Hawkins' favorite ways to engage students in learning outside of the classroom is to take them with him to cover a sporting event or into the lab to conduct research. He said he finds those one-on-one interactions to be very rewarding.

Outside of class, Hawkins conducts research on therapeutic modalities. Hawkins has been known to hit people with a tennis ball to create a bruise (with proper institutional board approval of course) so that he can treat them in different ways.

The profession of athletic training is ever changing and Hawkins said he is always looking for new ways to keep the Colorado Mesa University Athletic Training students on the forefront of those changes.
