A memorable colleague

March 24, 2020
I will always remember Alonzo as representing the passionate integrity and commitment among faculty the brought me  MC almost 20 years ago. He had a crystal clear vision and deep understanding of where one draws the line between fair and unfair, just and unjust. He advocated for those without a voice, and he remained creative and critical after so many years in a profession that leaves many of us exhausted and at times dispirited. Not so for Alonzo. --I had the great pleasure to travel India with Alonzo and Susan a few years ago, as part of the Global Humanities Institute, which I directed. Alonzo was also a valued member of the GHI community as a former fellow who worked to engage new pedagogies for bringing global perspectives to his teaching. I am sorry to know Alonzo is gone because he is one of a very brave generation of folks who continue to inspire us today. His impact on his students and his colleagues will continue to effect positive change in this world. -- My love to you, Susan, and your family.
