I took two courses for which Dr. J. P. DenHartog was my classroom instructor. (You'd know who he was if you were a mechanical engineer.)
My B.S. Thesis advisor was Forbes Brown. (You might know who he was if you were a mechanical engineer.)
I once had an in-class argument lasting nearly a half-hour with Dr. *Paul Samuelson. He pretended to disagree with me, but his testimony to the US Senate a month later didn't.
*Paul Samuelson: Nobel Prize, Economics about a year before our "argument."
