个人简介
Having come from New York, I started my higher education in night school at Orange County Community College, Middletown, NY. Additional education included degrees from Indiana University (B.S., Chemistry; M.S., Geology) and Lehigh University (Ph.D., Geochemistry, Mat. Sci.), with predoctoral experimental petrology research at the Geophysical Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. This continued as a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Geophysical Lab, followed by a Fulbright Fellowship and Humboldt Stiftung at the Max-Planck-Institüt für Kernphysik in Heidelberg, Germany. After 2 years as Asst. Professor at Purdue University, I came to Tennessee in 1973 as UT embarked upon its thrust into research.As Director of the Planetary Geosciences Institute here at UT, I am particularly interested in our exciting space outreach efforts. Funds that UT obtains from the NASA-sponsored Tennessee Space Grant Consortium are used especially for student scholarships in space science and engineering and our Teacher's Resource Distribution Center for service to K-12 teachers of Tennessee. These funds facilitate our extensive space outreach efforts, reaching an estimated 10,000-12,000 students and teachers, largely in grades 6-12, public organizations (e.g., Lions, Kiwanis, retire homes), as well as StarWatch sessions each clear night, open to the public with telescopes atop the Nielsen Physics Bldg (see Tennesse Space Grant Consortium at UT) .
