I was shocked by this. What a great man we've lost. 
RIP. |

He told a bunch of kids whom everyone else had written off that by putting effort into it, they could accomplish something: learning calculus and passing the AP exam. And so they did.
We need more of Jaime Escalante. |

If anything, I am glad this guy has left a legacy that will continue in teachers inspired by him, and the students he taught. |
