Dr. Schneider was my first and last college math professor. I knew the class would be interesting when he sent out about 12 emails over Christmas break before class even started. Class was crazy! Prof. Schneider had some crazy voices and some interesting analogies....

Reconnection
I had the pleasure of taking my very first college mathematics course from Dr. Leo Schneider, Honors Calculus I, in the fall of 1980. I was new to everything college had to show me, and amazed at how Dr. Schneider treated us as adults, trusting us to do our...
