In the fall of 1958, I was a transfer student to 贝洛伊特. Les McAllister, as my advisor, was the first staff I met. 除了U.S. 经济历史, I can’t remember any other economics courses I took my first semester, 但最后我把他的都拿走了.

He gave me an interest in economics that continues to this day. 我敢肯定,他是伍德罗·威尔逊提名我和我被选为“布鲁塞尔芽菜”的幕后推手.” I was very fortunate to bring him up to date at my 50th reunion.

Frank Crivello was my first contact with 十大菠菜台子. I always felt like he was in my corner, 从我还在高中(考虑到伯洛伊特)到毕业那天.

If he happened to see me walk past Middle College to classes, he’d yell out his office window to flag me down. Then I’d walk over, and we’d chat a bit. (It was amusing then and still makes me smile now.)那种欢迎、支持的姿态象征着我在伯洛伊特的经历.

Did I have awesome professors who also made a difference? 我当然是这么想的——有几个立刻浮现在我的脑海里——但当我想到那些不那么安静的、尖叫着的支持线时 追随你的激情! the entire time I was at 贝洛伊特, I always think of Frank.
