Chemistry research project, 1960

Chemistry Professor M. Benton Naff supervises Fred Richardson ('61) and Bill Weigle ('62) as they work on a research project.

A contributor explains that this "photo was taken in the summer of 1960, when both Fred and Bill were working on a research project directed by Professor Naff and funded by the National Science Foundation. Fred went on to earn his Ph.D. in chemical physics at Princeton University and Bill went on to earn his Ph.D. in atmospheric sciences at the Univ. of Michigan. Professor Naff and his wife Anna (who was also a chemist) left Dickinson several years later and became research chemists at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD."
