Letters

As a former Wolfson Campus student and editor of the school's newspaper, Metropolis, I got to know Dr. Padron very well. We disagreed as often as we agreed, but Dr. Padron was always willing to listen and make changes. His door was always open. A few times he called me for input. Because of a weak student government, the paper was the backbone of student advocacy on campus.

What I most remember about Dr. Padron was one time when I called him regarding a student who complained to me that he was going to have to quit school because he couldn't find a way to pay his tuition. He had some very serious problems at home. I urged him to stay and called Dr. Padron to see if he could help. He said not to worry about it, that he would not let this student drop out. A few semesters later the student graduated with me and went on to another college. That's just the kind of man Dr. Padron is. Some bully!
