B.A. (with honors in chemistry), 1955, St. Olaf College.
Ph.D. in chemistry, 1959, Univ. of Wisconsin.
Professor Erickson has maintained an active research program in nuclear magnetic
resonance (nmr) spectroscopy, the co-ordination chemistry of platinum group metals,
kinetics and mechanisms of solution reactions, molecular mechanics and molecular
modeling. Nearly 100 undergraduate students have worked with him on this research
which is reported in over 30 publications--most with Grinnell undergraduate
co-authors--in the primary literature.
