Former state Senator and longtime Professor of Political Science at Johnson State College (now part of the unified Vermont State University)
“Bill was a distinguished academic and incredible public servant. We are proud that his professional career began with an internship at Johnson. His sixty years of dedicated service to Vermont and his leadership in the political science department are legendary.”
“Not only did he regularly immerse his students in the Vermont Legislature and provide them with first-hand experience and knowledge of state government, his influence inspired over sixty of his students to run for office. His commitment to mentoring the next generation of public servants has certainly made Vermont a better place to live. May we all continue to carry on this tradition.”
“Our hearts go out to Bill’s family, friends and those at Vermont State University whose lives he impacted.”
