Susan M. Milstein, a longtime McDaniel College professor of economics and business administration who taught her students through tough love, died Dec. 3 from complications of Alzheimer’s disease at Carroll Hospital Center. The Westminster resident was 77.
“Susan had tremendous mastery of her subject and had tremendous care for her students,” said Ethan Seidel, who began teaching at McDaniel in 1969, and was chairman of the department of economics and business administration from 2012 until his retirement in 2021.
“And after they graduated from college, she continued to follow them. That was just her nature. She looked after everybody and in our department was like a mother hen,” Professor Seidel said. “Her students loved her, and she had high standards, and taught them with tough love and they appreciated that.”
He added: “She changed lives. That’s her legacy.”
