520			\|a Corcos describes his childhood in France before WWII, joining the U.S. Air Force and returning to France to tend the family's flower farm. He explains how he came to California to study horticulture, received his degree, and eventually came to MSU to teach in the early 1960s. Corcos also discusses his long career, including teaching at MSU, his research and the books he has written on race, heredity and the research of Gregor Mendel. He laments the fact that so many students came to his class completely unprepared to excel in biology, but describes his great satisfaction in being able to steer so many to appropriate careers. Corcos is interviewed by Dr. Evelyn Rivera, Professor Emerita from the MSU Department of Zoology. Part of the Michigan State University Faculty Emeriti Association Oral History Project.
