"There is no racism in the locker room or anything like that," says officer George F. Pierce, who has been with the department for 22 years. "If there were, I would be personally offended."
Pierce Professor of Technology and Public Policy Harvey Brooks says, "I think he's somewhat better in communicating with the faculty than his predecessors."
But there's little cause for worry, says Robert B. Pierce, an English professor who worked with Buell for 26 years at Oberlin College. Pierce says the tall, gray-haired scholar's calmness belies an unflagging energy.
Pierce describes his friend as "very open, friendly, sort of low-key in manner, though not at all low-key in effect."
In addition, Pierce says, when Buell became interested in the environment, he encouraged the English department to follow suit, even developing and teaching a course on American literature and the environment.
