Plans:

I relinquished my regular teaching duties at the end of the 2001-2002 academic year. During the fall semester 2002, I directed Elizabethtown's Copenhagen Semester in Chemistry (on site), teaching Quantum Theory in Denmark's International Studies program of the University of Copenhagen, and engaging in some research with old friends at the Ørsted Institute.  For the next few years, I shall teach X-ray diffraction, laser spectroscopy, and quantum philosophy (in some else’s cours, thank you) and devote nearly full-time to the MoleCVUE Project
