Comment:
I agree with the previous (and, sadly, only positive) comment. Brilliant man, if somewhat harsh on the more disinterested student. Affable, extremely knowledgeable, subtly witty - and highly demanding. Lancashire accent pronounced whilst speaking French, most startling.

Carleton has improved now that he has retired. Mean, arrogant and uninterested in teaching indeed. A very angry man.

Comment:
Bert Halsall is a brilliant man. From Marcel Proust to Monty Python, he is a shining fount of knowledge and a joy to talk to. He is intolerant of fools, which is unfortunate as he teaches at Carleton. He makes you think, but it's worth it. It is tragic for Carleton that he has retired. His impeccable taste for Kir-Pêche remains inspiring.

Comment:
He was arrogant, mean and clearly didn't care if we took much away with us. He also always wore the same corderoy patched jacket.
