Dr. Gwin was the most fantastic storyteller and historian. ISometimes, I would find that I had stopped taking notes and I was just listening. I took every course he taught and then when I went back for my masters, he was the Dean of Graduate Studies and he still remembered me.

Deepest condolences to the Gwinn family. Professor Gwin was among my most favorite and inspirational teachers. I vividly remember being his student in World Civ almost fifty years ago. He left an enduring, positive influence on me as he did on countless others.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Gwin's World History class at Lamar University in 1970. He was very knowledgeable, interesting, and brought lots of amusing facts into his lectures. I also enjoyed talking with him after class. He is one of my fondest memories of my time at Lamar.

I took Dr. Gwin's "Classical Civilization" course the first semester he taught at Lamar. A newly minted PhD, Dr. Gwin presented the material with mastery and much enthusiasm. I still chuckle when I recall a couple of his witticisms.
With deepest sympathy to Dr. Gwin's family and friends,
Carol Achenbach Corbin

Donna and I send our condolences to the family. I'll especially miss Howell's witty comments on FaceBook. Over the years, several students came into my office asking about their history exams. Maybe they thought my beard had grown magically overnight.
