RIP …

… In Memoriam: Wide-Ranging Literary and Pop Culture Critic Paul Cantor | UVA Today. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Cantor valued his students’ ideas and championed his students’ strengths, Hufnagel said, and “the result was he elevated his students and gave them confidence in their studies and in their lives. He taught me that academics and life should always be driven by curiosity and openness to new ideas, new experiences and new approaches.”
