Barbara Barres said she couldn't come back to visit Harvard because she was Ben Barres. She had undergone a change, transgender person, and did it very, very successfully. Was forward, was outgoing, was quite wonderful. Her students adored her... him. I keep making this error. Students adored him and were so sad when he developed a malignant disorder, which dragged on for at least two years. That was my major regret.
