iSchool Prof. Schramm Remembers Late Professor
In early September, John P. White, an integral part of the 鶹Ƶcommunity passed away. He was a faculty member, leader and much more. He is remembered by his former student and current iSchool University Professor .
“Taking an economics course from him changed my life. He had an inspiring classroom presence — a teacher who worked so hard to successfully bring students to difficult insights that his students reciprocated with hard work, implicitly not wanting to somehow disappoint him,” Schramm wrote in a commentary for Syracuse.com. “Looking back, his magic seemed like a combination of Socrates’ skill at communicating a love of learning with the firm but embracing command presence for which White’s other alma mater, the Marine Corps, is famous.”
