...said that the current series of early physics classes—Physics 15a, 15b, and 15c—will likely be “replaced or modified” by the 2012 academic year...
...physics classes. However, any chemistry class is OK.) Morin and Georgi teach Physics 15a, “Introductory Mechanics and Relativity,” and Physics 16, “Mechanics and Special Relativity,” because they like to meet the new concentrators before they take Physics 15b, “Introductory Electromagnetism,” and drop out. Georgi, from all appearances, is the model professor: he is master of Leverett, hosts regular socials with his famous gooey cinnamon “monkeybread,” and stays in Leverett dining hall until...
Although Georgi is no longer head of the department, he still plays ambassador to physics buffs. Freshmen in his Physics 15b and 16 classes turn to him instead of their academic advisers. As Head Tutor, he’s turned Leverett House into the de facto center for physics outside of Jefferson Hall. Every Wednesday, students converge on the dining hall for Physics Night, seeking help from each other and the man himself...
It’s 11 a.m., and the Physics 15b lecture is winding down. In last night’s outfit, Georgi leans against the wall, waiting.

The answers tally up on screen. “Did that make sense?” he asks. “You’re quiet!” They quickly murmur perfunctory yeses...
