Notes, topics or text

Holter attended BR's lectures at UCLA. He was also a teaching assistant with John Russell in his physics class. Holter has confused BR's chronology, placing the CCNY case before BR's arrival at UCLA.

He remembers BR as "a great teacher and I have no reason to think my fellow students felt otherwise. He particularly appealed to those with a sense of humour and who didn't take themselves too seriously." He found John Russell not accepting of "bad pedagogy".
