Teaching
My classroom teaching career is over. It has been a wonderful time over nearly
50 years. I was a teaching assistant in physics at the University of Chicago in
1975 and ended with my last class at McGill in 2024. In between I taught
classes at: the University of Utah in both physics and computer science, at
Cornell, at Queen's University and at McGill for 34 years. I have taught
numerous short courses, Summer schools and Winter schools at a number of places:
Oxford, Paris, Aarhus, Edinburgh, Estonia, India, Amsterdam and Italy. I have
found brilliant students at all levels and places. Over the years at McGill I
won three teaching awards: the Leo Yaffe Award from the Faculty of Science in
1999, the Principal's Prize in 2015 and the Class of 1890 Prize from the Faculty
of Engineering in 2022. More precious than those have been the many "thank you"
notes students have sent me over the years. I am still active in research and
hope to give seminars and even guest lectures in classes in the years to come.
To the wonderful students I have had over the years, I would like to say, "Thank
you for all the joy you have brought me."
