Today we remember Donald Levine, AB’50, MA’57, PhD’57. An adventurous and open-minded intellectual, Levine made wide-ranging contributions to the field of sociology, alongside his lasting impact on the University as dean of the College from 1982-87. Share your memories of Prof. Levine in the comments. http://bit.ly/1DoBY6u
