Pink Peeps and Cadbury Eggs have some stiff competition from the contents of the brown and white shells care of Mother Hen/Mother Nature. No sugary treat can compete with a soft egg white, crisp and buttery on the edges and tender in the middle or with a broken middle — a flowing stream of rich, intensely yellow yolk.

Is it in the gaze from behind their wide-framed spectacles? Their smooth vocal delivery of the sociological perspectives of race in the mid-1960s? What about the flawless curve of their cursive letter “c” on the whiteboard? Whatever — some professors are just downright appealing, and we wonder what they’re like outside of the classroom.

The ballots are in and the nominees accounted for. We’ve asked four of the top tempting teachers questions deemed first-date worthy. Answers sufficient for second date inquiries.

Ivory-tickler Ignacio “Nachito” Herrera came to the Twin Cities in 2001 from Cuba when opportunities to play, teach and conduct proved too good to pass up.

Upon learning that his visa would not be reissued if he returned home, Herrera decided to stay and fight for a chance to remain with the aid of immigration attorneys.

“Two years after I decided to stay, I was able to bring my family over from Cuba,” Herrera said. “Obviously that was based on a mutual agreement after talking to my wife. It was a hard decision.”
