Slabaugh is an adjunct professor at the University of South Dakota and at Weber State University, where he teaches the yearlong sequence of general chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry. He received his B.S. in chemistry from Purdue University and his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from Iowa State University. His interest in plant alkaloids led to a year of postdoctoral study in biochemistry at Texas A&M University. His current professional interests are chemistry education and community involvement in science activities, particularly the State Science and Engineering Fair in Utah. He also enjoys the company of family, hiking in the mountains and fishing the local stream. Michael R.

Hansen is an adjunct professor at the University of South Dakota, where she teaches online courses in general chemistry, elementary organic chemistry and elementary biochemistry. She has also been a science teacher at West High School, where she taught honors biology, and has taught AP biology and biology in the International Baccalaureate Program. Professor Hansen received her B.A. and M.Ed. from Weber State University, and her professional interests have focused on helping students participate in Science Olympiad and Science Fair. Other interests include adventure travel, mountain hiking, gardening and the company of friends and family, and she hopes to share her love of science with her two children.
