After completing my studies and thesis, in June 1949 I was named to a faculty position as an assistant professor in Zemplen s organic chemical institute. The following month I married my boyhood love. 

The facilities for experimental work were poor, with inadequate wet laboratory space. In our discussions, I mentioned to Kaprielian my interest in significantly extending my previous work into the area of hydrocarbon chemistry. I felt that by establishing a strong program of basic research and graduate education in hydrocarbon chemistry, USC could become a leader in this important field. Because the memory of the first Arab oil embargo was still fresh, this struck a chord with Kaprielian, who felt that he could sell my research interest to the trustees and establish a Hydrocarbon Research Institute at USC that could accommodate me, as well as other chemistry faculty members whose interests could fit into its framework. 

Since its inception, the institute, in addition to its regular faculty members, has always had a number of outstanding scientists associated with it as fellows or adjunct facnlty. These include, among others, Ned Arnett, Joe Casanova, Paul Schleyer, Jean Sommer, Gabor Somorjai, Peter Stang, Michael Szwarc (who just recently passed away), Ken Wade, and Bob Williams. They greatly contribnte to onr scientific work by their visits and participation in our symposia and freqnently throngh close research cooperation. Because they are also close friends. 

My faculty colleagues of the Institute also bring great expertise in the areas of anionic, cationic, and radical polymerization to the transformation of low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons into macromole-... 

Many of the topics covered in analytical chemistry benefit from the availability of appropriate computer software. In preparing this text, however, I made a conscious decision to avoid a presentation tied to a single computer platform or software package. Students and faculty are increasingly experienced in the use of computers, spreadsheets, and data analysis software their use is, I think, best left to the personal choice of each student and instructor. 

This project began in the summer of 1992 with the support of a course development grant from DePauw University s Faculty Development Fund. Additional financial support from DePauw University s Presidential Discretionary Fund also is acknowledged. Portions of the first draff were written during a sabbatical leave in the Fall semester of the 1993/94 academic year. A Fisher Fellowship provided release time during the Fall 1995 semester to complete the manuscript s second draff.
