The Bulldog ranks are broken again; Rest In Peace to iconic Mathematics Professor 👨🏾🏫 Mr. Leon Myers. Man through out his tenure many have stories and impressions but, we know you were forced to be great whether in your regular classes or if you had to re-learn or get a grasp in extra sessions.
An advisor to many at South Carolina State he will be missed. #scstate #scstateprofessors #stem #math #bulldoglegend #hbcuprofessors #scsu #scstatealumni #hbcu #orangeburg #scstatenyalumni #omegapsiphi #xipsiques
Man, there are staples at South Carolina State University. Bethea Hall was a staple. The Pit is a staple. Parties at Dukes were a staple. This man right here was a staple all by himself. Mr. Leon Myers ladies and gentlemen.
Mr. Myers in addition to being a math teacher was also a basketball referee. When I told my dad who was teaching me math, he laughed HYSTERICALLY…”Pop!!!” Man, Pop couldn’t call a game at all! He gave me a tech man!”
My introduction to Mr. Myers was my sophomore year. His class started that semester in Nance Hall then went to Belcher Hall. I was walking to class one day with a Mossimo t-shirt on, (Ya’ll don’t remember how dope THOSE were), some Timbs, but I made the ultimate mistake…I had on shorts too. AND it was raining…AND I was coming from Mitchell because I had to get something from my cousin Jermaine.
I walk in the class real smooth while he was just starting his lesson. He literally had chalk in his hand about to write on the board…he turns and looks at me,
“Boy, where do you think you’re going? I’ll call Berkeley County and speak to Cleve directly…Go on back to the dorm…”“But Mr. Myers man, I came from Mitchell! AND it’s raining!
“Bye…uh….Hawkins…”
Couldn’t even get mad at him because I knew better….
Definitely the epitome of the professor at an HBCU…
In those extra sessions, I used to STRUGGLE with math…Every day in class, he used to call people to the board…he knew I HATED math so he called on me EVERY Monday, Wednesday, AND Friday…“Number 8, uh Jones, Number 9, Jenkins, number 10, uh Hawkins…”
And every day, I would go to the board and BOMB the math problem…Jones and Jenkins would do their problem and sit down and I would still be at the board. One day, sitting at his desk, he turns around looks at me and says, “Hawkins, just go sit down…”
I respond, “My Myers, I ain’t no quitter…”“What did you say?”
I said it a little louder but not too loud because I didn’t want to be embarrassed…
“I said, I ain’t no quitter…”
He turns to me and says, “Boy, go sit yo a** down…”
The same guy who said, “I don’t give a damn about none of ya’ll! I’ll flunk ya’ll and go home, turn over in my bed and smile…”The same guy who after a student told him, “Mr. Myers man, I’m becoming a Muslim so don’t call me by last name, call me * X*” to where Mr. Myers responded, “Boy, if you don’t get the hell on outta here…”
When I was living in Orangeburg, every time I saw him, he would always stop me with that distinctive voice, “Hawkins, I can’t believe you’re a teacher…You weren’t good in math at all…”
I would laugh because…it was Mr. Myers…
“I don’t teach math sir….I teach English…”I’m going to miss this guy because he was the epitome of a professor who showed us tough love but cared about us. These stories are just some of the ones that I could tell but I’m sure everyone who went through his class has plenty more. Him and Mr. Staley WERE South Carolina State University…Even my sister and cousins have stories of being in his class.
To one of OUR professors, rest in peace Mr. Leon Myers…
