David G. Alberg

Associate Professor and Chair; Carleton, B.A.; California (Berkeley), Ph.D. In addition to teaching biochemistry and organic chemistry, Alberg does research in molecular recognition and enzymology, especially the design of enzyme inhibitors.

 

Charles Carlin

Professor Emeritus; Carthage, B.A.; Johns Hopkins, M.A., Ph.D. Carlin teaches organic chemistry and is studying the synthesis of chiral catalysts.

 

Marion E. Cass

Professor; Fort Lewis College, B.S.; Colorado, Ph.D. Cass, who teaches introductory and inorganic chemistry, as well as laboratory courses in inert-atmosphere synthesis, kinetics, and spectroscopy, studies the factors that determine specificity for a given metal ion in naturally-occurring metal ion sequestering agents.

 

Joseph W. Chihade

Assistant Professor; Oberlin, B. A.; Columbia University, Ph. D. Chihade teaches organic and biological chemistry and studies RNA binding proteins and RNA structure. 

Steven M. Drew

Professor; St. John's, B.A.; Colorado, Ph.D. Drew teaches analytical and introductory chemistry, and his research involves the design of chemically modified microelectrodes.

 

Tricia A. Ferrett

Professor; Grinnell, B.A.; California (Berkeley), Ph.D. Ferrett, who teaches introductory and physical chemistry, is studying the gas phase fragmentation of small molecules using synchrotron radiation.

 

James E. Finholt

Professor Emeritus; St. Olaf, B.A.; California (Berkeley), Ph.D. Finholt is interested in the synthesis and reactions of transition metal compounds.

 

Deborah S. Gross

ON LEAVE 2005 - 2006. Associate Professor; Haverford, B.A.; California (Berkeley), Ph.D. Gross teaches introductory, analytical and environmental chemistry, and is interested in the chemistry of aerosol particles in the atmosphere.

Gretchen E. Hofmeister

Associate Professor; Carleton, B.A.; California (Berkeley), Ph.D. In addition to teaching organic chemistry, Hofmeister does research in metal-mediated organic synthesis and polymer chemistry.

William E. Hollingsworth

Professor; Texas (Austin), B.A., B.S.; California (Berkeley), M.S., Ph.D. Besides teaching introductory and physical chemistry, Hollingsworth's interests involve using lasers to study photochemical and spectroscopic properties of metal-containing molecules in the gas phase.

Daniela Kohen

Assistant Professor; Universidad de Buenos Aires, B.S.; University of Notre Dame, Ph.D. Kohen teaches introductory and physical chemistry. She is a theoretical and computational physical chemist, interested in the general area of dynamics in condensed phase (how atoms and molecules move and interact when they're not by themselves).

Jerry R. Mohrig

Professor Emeritus; Michigan, B.S.; Colorado, Ph.D. Mohrig teaches organic and bio-organic chemistry. His research is in the area of reaction mechanisms, especially models of biochemical catalysis, with emphasis on the stereochemistry of elimination-addition and proton-transfer reactions.

Jane M. Owens

Visiting Assistant Professor of Chemistry; William Smith College, B.S.; Illinois (Urbana-Champaign) Ph.D. Owens teaches introductory and physical chemistry. Her research uses computational methods to study the molecular dynamics of photochemical processes.
