In Memoriam: Chris Pinet, great teacher and humanities advocate
We're sad to share the news that Chris Pinet, French professor extraordinaire and advocate for the humanities in Montana, has passed away. Chris served as chair of the (then) Montana Committee for the Humanities for two years, and he often expressed his pride in that role. He remained an enthusiastic supporter of our work, often sending encouraging e-mails from places near and far (occasionally from Paris). Please see the article below for a much fuller telling of his wonderful life. Chris will be missed. Our condolences to his family and friends.
