A memorial service will be held Wednesday for beloved University of St. Thomas professor Mohamed Selim. He passed away Sunday at the age of 91.

Selim taught at St. Thomas for 45 years, and over that time became a figure of the St. Paul community.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with his son, Ali Selim, about his father's life and legacy.
