Martin Luther King and Robert F. Kennedy together

I took her History of the 60’s course in 1982. Truly one of my favorite classes at SUCO. She made it seem like she was right there with Kennedy and King and Malcolm X while they were making history. She was mesmerizing as a professor. Every time I go visit the campus and I’m in IRC, I think of her and that course. We were all lucky to have experienced her teaching. Sorry to hear of her passing. May she rest in peace knowing that she had such an amazing effect on so many young people.
