This work is also to celebrate the intellectually courageous and decades-long inspiring influence which Mr. Teunis - through his rigorous high expectations of us, untraditional teaching-methods, humour, and even bits of his off-stage life-style - had on numerous of his students, on our careers, tastes, and cultural level.

A few of the links you'll see, when clicked, will take you straight to internet pages with the contributed text.
Most links however end in .doc or .pdf. If these are blocked, you can go to your computer's or browser's security settings, and make your files-viewing voluntary rather than automatically blocked.
When clicked these files will then bring up a box with the options "open file" (.doc files open with Word, .pdf with Adobe Reader) or "save" (to your computer). Clicking here will give you the contributed text or picture.
Very long contributions will use a minute or so downloading to your screen.
You can always change the settings back afterwards, if you want to.
If you still can't see a file, you can email me below, and I'll send it to you! We don't want no unsolved problems here!
