Very sad to hear of Professor Sherwood's passing. He had a great influence on so many students....enlightening them to the importance of the Constitution.

He was my professor at NU what seems a million lifetimes ago. I learned an invaluable lesson from him you dont need to always be correct, but you must prove your point and be convincing ! That was how I passed his class and I still use his knowledge in my everyday life. Rest In Peace Prof. Sherwood!

I apologize for my tardiness. I just learned he had passed away. To you and all of your family my condolences, a truly sad day. I am sure you are all very proud of him and rightfully so.
I can't say enough about him but I"ll try. A fine Upstanding, Witty, Provocative Man. A truly great Humanitarian. Professor Extraordinaire.
For those Naysayers and Negativists who complain about the tests or stories, too bad. He informed us on the first day of class about the tests and that they would be difficult and he would curve them because not many would pass them. He gave 100 % and expected the same. He made you think, wow what a novel idea in college, and look at the law and everything else from all sides. I took all his Law/Evidence classes while many opted for an easier Professor.
There's no doubt he's in the big court in the sky trying cases, and winning even against the Big Guy.
God Bless.

Nicholas, I was so sad to read of your Fathers passing. Wally & I had some great times at my baseball card shows and it was a pleasure calling him my friend. Rest In Peace Wally.

It is with great sadness that I learned about a colleagues death several months later. Wally, as many affectionately called him, was my mentor and friend when I was a new teacher at Northeastern. I still have a picture of him in my office of when he first started at Northeastern taped to my fridge. I learned of his death by sending a Christmas card. I was sad for several days afterwards. He was a great mentor and I am very sorry for your loss.

Goodbye dear Wally. One of the great, weird and wonderful friends of a lifetime. I am sure I won't meet your like again. I'll be smoking a cigar for you with the sunset this weekend - just like old times.
