I looked up the Professor for some reason. I received my first A, which took a while, in his Psychology class. He was a very animated, interesting and fun professor. Passed away this past August at the age of 81. Turns out he was a world-class athlete and trained for the 1964 Olympics. I remember one class he talked about how fascinating it was for a basketball player to be able to shoot the basketball - the way the muscles would be able to launch the ball taking into account weight, distance, height, velocity, in order to find the proper arch and trajectory to make the basket.
