Dr. Kevin was my most memorable teacher at State. He took us to London in spring '72 and advised me to pursue a career in science education. THAT changed my life forever.

Kevin Gottlieb taught multiple classes I attended while I was at MSU ('72-'77). He was a very genuine person and always had extra time for me to discuss social and environmental issues of the day. He also wrote a personal reference for me to get into medical school. I've thought of him many times since then and was saddened to just learn of his passing. He was by far my favorite teacher of all time. My condolences to his family and everyone who had a close relationship with him.

That was the turning point of my academic and professional career. I became a poli-sci major, Foreign Service Officer and international...

Have you scheduled a memorial service? I was a student of Kevin’s at MSU and we kept up from time to time over the years. His influence was pivotal for me. Thanks.

Dr. Gottlieb was my social studies teacher for three terms at Michigan State University in 1974. He was the best teacher I had at MSU. On the first day of class he told students if they wanted an 'A' grade they were going to have to work for it as he would be challenging his students in a way hey may not have been before. Some students left. I felt delighted.
Dr Gottlieb used the daily New York Times as our class text. He was concerned about the world, its problems, analysis of...
