Colleagues remember Professor Emeritus Clyde Collard as a dedicated educator and prolific writer who loved to interact with people. His daughter, Nancy Doizé, described him as all that and more.
“He was an amazing man and a wonderful father who cared deeply for his family and his children,” she said. “He loved life, doing things and going places. And, he absolutely loved teaching sociology.”
Collard, who taught in Stanislaus State’s Department of Sociology for 20 years, died Feb. 11. He was 91.
