Death of a Professor

Most VMI graduates associated with site shan’t know the name of “Smokey” Gilliam as he was retired before most attended VMI. Here is a link to his obit http://www.rockbridgeweekly.com/obits/obit.php. I will reflect later on the life of Smokey Gilliam, it is too early in the morning for my brain to properly function.

    only poly-sci course I ever took was his and he was the greatest kind of guy to us engineering majors. I remember he graded by class, 1st=a 2nd=b 3rd=c, at least in our class it was that way
