And incredibly personally open and present. To us undergraduates. He valued each of us as people.

And he did not bother me! Just a week before the deadline, he called and said, ‘Can I see what you have?’ After reading it, he just said, ‘Well, you need an introductory page or so, and a few words at the end summarizing the whole thing.’ He meant I had done the job!
