It's been a while for me but I can't shake the memory of a PChem lecture where someone raised their hand half way through a semester and asked if anything leaned in the class had any practical application in the future. The professor basically said no. I was like, dude, you just asked what everyone in here has been thinking. Schroedinger's equation? Come on, I can't even spell it right.

Applications make it easy to run mass/energy balances without really knowing what is happening. Control systems can make you forget what the I variable in a PID loop does. The list goes on. SAT scores in reading are dropping across the USA and pundits are blaming the computing age, 1-minute attention spans and the never ending need to consume popular content.
In this era of fast-paced innovation with readily digestible content that is forgotten soon after reading, we need to remain that which has kept us on top in terms of our value to society and that is through our unique ability to develop and apply science in a pool that is bigger than the proverbial "mile wide" and do so in a manner that is far deeper than "an inch".
ChE's have always been privy to a plethora of opportunity regardless of industry, economic climate or era.
I look forward to reading everyone's thoughts on this.
Best,
Bob

Rational folks that seek to excel in meeting the company's mission and vision will not intentionally behave poorly as it compromises their own career, well-being, and livelihood. An investigation into the root cause of such behavior may turn up structural or other circumstances that lead to an opportunity to correct endemic structural or divisional roadblocks.

Thanks for the feedback. I have notified the operators of this site about the broken link. If you wish to send me a private email, I will send the files directly to you. I've obscured the @ symbol below to keep the spammers at bay.

Thanks for your note. Regarding explanation of simplified loops, have you looked at any of the companion videos I provide at youttube? This is at least a start. Take a look and let me know if that helps. - Bob
