RIP Dr Bonk

Dr Bonk has passed away.

I, like thousands of other Dukies, had Dr. Bonk. He literally wrote the book on freshman chem.

RIP Good Doctor, RIP.

RIP, Dr. Bonk. If I had gone to undergrad at Duke, I imagine I would have taken chemistry with him. I love all the Bonkistry stories I've read over the years.

Was he a basketball fan? At least he didn't have to watch tonight.

RIP
