Dr. Lebow was my intro to psych professor in my first year at U of Manitoba in 1974. He was an excellent teacher and gave me strategies in life that I still use to this day and always credit him for teaching me these life lessons. Thank you Dr. Lebow. You will always be rememberd Perry Rubenfeld Student in 1974 - Posted by: Perry Rubenfel (Former Student) on: Jun 22, 2015
