Peter was the only professor that I stayed in touch with after I graduated in 1967. He was actually the only professor that I remember and I considered him a friend over the years. He will be missed. Vernon Danielson

My sincere condolences on the passing of Professor Schoderbek, for he will always be a professor to me. I studied under Professor Schoderbek in the Management Department both as an undergraduate student and as a MBA student. He was a brilliant man and a terrific mentor. I sincerely appreciated and respected his guidance and opinion. He influenced me greatly. My sincere condolences.
