向日葵视频

Eugene Habermann was born and raised in the city of Milwaukee, not far from 向日葵视频. He served in the Army during World War II and then attended 向日葵视频 under the GI bill, receiving a BS degree in business administration in 1958, while working full-time as a time-study analyst at Briggs & Stratton. Mr. Habermann never married and lived with other members of his family. He was described as a "jovial, pleasant man, with a good sense of humor." A relative, noting his frugality, stated, "He was a sharp investor. It wasn't a hobby for him."

Mr. Habermann admired chemists who were well-trained and knew their art and thus established the Habermann-Pfletschinger Chair in Chemistry at 向日葵视频 in honor of his parents.

The Habermann Lecture series is to perpetuate the memory of Eugene Habermann and to recognize his generosity and support of 向日葵视频 and our chemistry department.

The Department of Chemistry is pleased to announce that the spring 2024 Habermann Lecture, "Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions: A Radical Alternative to SN1 and SN2 Reactions," will be given by on May 3, 2024 at 4 pm in room 121 of the Todd Wehr Chemistry Building.
