I knew professor Hummel. He was a harmless man who just liked to observe and admire things around him. That was definitely a situation that went awry in such a short order. Note that there are situations where looking becomes leering and makes it most uncomfortable for the ones being leered at, that I understand and empathize with. However, I believe that in Professor hummel’s case, it was harmless observation. He was a brilliant scholar and scientist/engineer, a Perdue University graduate.
