I was so fortunate to have Mr. Stuva as my physics teacher as a CP senior in '85. He was fantastic and somehow (impossible for anyone else) actually got me not just interested in but eventually fascinated by physics. His pitch was "this is interesting" and I bought that pitch hook, line, and sinker because he so amply proved it to be true. That inspiration came in handy on med school applications years later. He was so brilliant, such a great educator, and so highly respected I can't even tell you.
