...Davis (who retired a year and a half ago). The precociousness of the McCarty clan was not unknown to Davis, however, who also acted as a mentor to McCarty’s older brother, Logan. Logan attended Harvard College as a chemistry concentrator, and had gone on to TF Chem 5 and Chem 7 while a Chemistry graduate student at Harvard. Davis suggested to Justin that for part-time work in the summer, he tutor students privately in chemistry. After some positive feedback, Davis asked McCarty to jump onboard as a TF in his extension school general chemistry course...

In the sciences, my sphere of expertise, the humanities play a crucial role of inspiration. Nobel Laureate Dudley Hershbach made us write poems in his Chem 10 class because he believes that the desire to learn about the root causes of phenomena in the world arises from our appreciation of the world’s beauty.
