My sympathy for Dr. Akers' family. I was just one of many freshman students at OU when I took one of his US History courses. It was a class I enjoyed greatly and I went on to become a middle school teacher - teaching that same course I took from Dr. Akers. When I talk about Abigail Adams to my students I often think of Dr. Akers' class.
