About the Cover:

This issue of the Journal of Chemical Education is dedicated to two unsung heroes of chemical education in America - William B. Cook and Moses Passer. Both have been active contributors to the life and work of this profession for over 30 years. Both were outstanding university chemistry teachers and sound academic chemists. However, each has made his most impressive and far-reaching contributions in the administration of national and international chemical education programs.
