The Polish theater director Jerzy Grotowski defined his theory of 鈥減oor theatre鈥 as the theatre that values the body of the actor and its relation with the spectator. Poor Theatre used the simplest of sets, costumes,lighting and props requiring the actors to employ all of their skills to transform a space into other imaginative worlds.

Chemistry 3: Organic Reactions and Mechanisms (with Lab) — CHE4213.01

Instructor: Fortune Ononiwu
Days & Time: T/F 10:30AM-12:20PM, W 8:30AM-12:10PM (Lab)
Credits: 5

Chemistry 3 focuses on the nature and pathways of organic reactions: what the steps are, how we experimentally determine them, and how we can use them to solve practical problems, such as the synthesis of a drug, or understanding the action of an enzyme. Emphasis will be using the general principles of nucleo- and and electrophilicity to provide a logical framework for understanding substitution, addition, elimination and reactions involving carbonyl groups. Chemical kinetics will also be a topic of study because of the insights it provides for reaction mechanisms.

Chemistry 1: Chemical Principles (with Lab) — CHE2211.01

Instructor: Fortune Ononiwu
Days & Time: T/F 2:10PM-4:00PM, Th 8:30AM-12:10PM (Lab)
Credits: 5

This course is the first of a four-course chemistry sequence covering general, organic and biochemistry. Students do not need to take the entire sequence. We will focus on introductory chemical principles, including atomic theory, classical and quantum bonding concepts, molecular structure, organic functional groups, and the relationship between structure and properties. The class will have lecture/discussion meetings at which we will critically examine the major concepts of reading assignments, discuss articles, and review some of the current developments of the field.
