About Emil Slowinski (Macalester College)

Emil J. Slowinski is an Emeritus DeWitt Wallace Professor of Chemistry at Macalester College. He earned a B.S. degree from Massachusetts State College in 1946 and a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1949. He taught at Swarthmore College, 1949-1952; the University of Connecticut, 1952-1964; and Macalester College, 1964-1988. His sabbatical leaves were at Oxford University in 1960 and the University of Warsaw in 1968. He is a co-author, with Bill Masterton and/or Wayne Wolsey, of more than 25 books on various areas of general chemistry. He was actively involved in all editions of CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES IN THE LABORATORY up through the 9th Edition, and though now retired from active writing, still offers insights, advice and support to his coauthors. Wayne C. Wolsey, an inorganic chemist, received his B.S. from Michigan State University in 1958 and his Ph.D. from the University of Kansas in 1962. He joined the Macalester College faculty in 1965 and is now in semi-retirement. His last three sabbaticals were spent at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In 2001-2002, he investigated various complexing agents for their effectiveness in dissolving calcium oxalate kidney stones, in collaboration with a former student, now a urologist. He has received various awards, including the Minnesota College Science Teacher of the Year in 1989; Macalester's Thomas Jefferson Award in 1993; designation as a MegaMole contributor to Minnesota Chemical Education in 1997; and an award from the Minnesota State AAUP Conference in 2001 for his support of academic freedom and shared governance. He remains professionally active in a number of scientific organizations. Robert C. Rossi is the Laboratory Supervisor in the Chemistry Department at Macalester College. He obtained a B.S. degree in chemical engineering from the University of Wisconsin - Madison in 1993 and upon graduation joined the Peace Corps, serving in the Fiji Islands. He then taught and carried out applied photoelectrochemistry and semiconductor physics research at the California Institute of Technology, earning a Ph.D. in 2001. After several years teaching as a visiting professor at Carleton College, he moved to Macalester College, where he has been since 2003. In 2011 he became a co-author of CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES IN THE LABORATORY, first writing for the 10th Edition.
