From the above link:

“David Bartholomae was the kind of teacher who trusted his students first — trusted them to do the difficult work of learning, to struggle, to approach difficult things with openness and curiosity. And every time I do that work, every time I tell my own kids that not knowing things is part of the joy and challenge of this world, every time I help my students see that they understand more than they think they do, Dave is with me in that moment. It has truly been one of the great honors in my life to have been his student.”

Mr. Bartholomae died Tuesday at his Shadyside home of head and neck cancer. He was 75.
