Joseph "Tucker" Madawick '37
Award-Winning Industrial Designer
Considered a “Living Legend” by the Ford Motor Company and the RCA Corporation, Joseph “Tucker” Madawick led the design team of the famed Tucker automobile introduced in 1948 as the "Car of Tomorrow." He later worked at Studebaker on the 1953 Starliner, which won numerous international design awards and established Studebaker as a styling leader. In 1959 he joined RCA as Manager of Radio, Phonograph, Tape and Television Design where he developed a highly futuristic series of potential electronic product designs that eventually appeared (some 30 years later!) in retail stores. Mr. Madawick became President and Fellow in 1964 of the Industrial Designers Institute (IDI) and later, President and Fellow of its successor, the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA).

AP Chemistry: This lab based course will prepare students for the AP Chemistry Examination in May through which students may earn college credit. Topics include: the Structure of Matter (Atomic Theory & Structure, Chemical Bonding, Nuclear chemistry), States of Matter (Gases, Liquids and Solids, Solutions), Reactions (Reaction Types, Stoichiometry, Equilibrium, Kinetics, Thermodynamics), Descriptive Chemistry (Chemical Reactivity, Relationships on the Periodic Table, Introduction to Organic Chemistry—hydrocarbons and functional groups), and Laboratory Chemistry.
Modern Instrumental Chemical Analysis: (MICA) Rotational, vibrational, and electronic states of atoms and molecules. Interaction of radiation with atoms and molecules. Molecular symmetry. Electronic, rotational and vibrational spectroscopy. Chemical identification by joint applications of spectroscopic techniques such as IR, HNMR, C13-NMR, Mass Spec and UV Spec.
Quantitative Analysis: An introduction to the principles and calculations of quantitative analysis. Topics include: chemical stoichiometry, acid and base concepts, ionic equilibria, acid-base titrations, spectrophotometry, oxidation-reduction reactions, complex compounds, gravimetric analysis, and precipitation titrations. Laboratory work consists of elementary gravimetric, volumetric and instrumental analysis.
Organic Chemistry: Chemistry of organic molecules: structure, nomenclature, properties and reactions of carbon compounds with emphasis on aliphatic compounds. Introduction to reaction mechanisms and stereochemistry. Includes laboratory involving methods for preparation, isolation and purification of typical organic compounds. Experiments chosen to illustrate basic techniques.
