“What I remember about her, sometimes in the strongest contexts and to the curious, if not terrified, amazement of my friends is AM-IS-ARE-WAS-WERE-MAY-CAN-MUST-MIGHT-COULD-WOULD-SHOULD-SHALL-WILL-DO-DOES-DID. And how she taught with such energy, enthusiasm, and encouragement!” Constance R. Coleman ’67
