Dr Michael L. LEVIN (Physics Department) retired in 1997

Michael Levin has given 25 years of loyal service to Haberdashers' after some years in industry with the Coal Board. He is an Old Haberdasher educated at Westbere Road.

Michael has taught physics throughout the School and for a number of years he has taught junior chemistry. He has been a member of the careers team for 11 years specialising in applications to medical schools.

For more than a decade Michael was responsible for chess at the School with its regular away matches often running late into the evening, particularly as the School teams progressed to many National Finals. This was no small commitment.

Michael has been more than a valued colleague. It is a great help to a head of department to have someone logisant enough to teach a set of any standard or character, and flexible enough to be a reference source for awkward questions.

We hope Hennie and he enjoy many years of active retirement.
