Seward Hiltner

In the very early seventies of the past century he was invited by the Dutch Catholic KTHU in Utrecht. KTHU and the faculty of theology then lived in the same office building. Both don't exist anymore. I was an unhappy student of the faculty and followed some courses of KTHU. I found that more practical. His public lectures helped me a lot, till this days. He made the impression of being a very shy person. Before and after lectures, he was 'invisible'. Nevertheless, I passed his course with a reasonable amount of work.
