<div>Our hearts are heavy as we share the news of the passing of Professor Steve Swingle on April 16, 2025. Steve, a beloved physics professor at City College, touched the lives of countless students and colleagues with his passion for teaching, his kindness, and his unwavering patience.

<div>Steve’s journey is one of a discovery of a passion for physics and a passion for sharing his love of physics with students. Despite many hardships, Steve pursued his academic dreams with fervor. His passion for physics and mathematics ignited during his time at a Southern California community college, leading him to transfer to UC Berkeley, where he earned his BS in Physics.
