About Darrell F. SchroeterDavid J. Griffiths

David J. Griffiths received his B.A. (1964) and Ph.D. (1970) from Harvard University. He taught at Hampshire College Mount Holyoke College and Trinity College before joining the faculty at Reed College in 1978. In 200102 he was visiting Professor of Physics at the Five Colleges (University of Massachusetts Amherst Mount Holyoke Smith and Hampshire) and in the spring of 2007 he taught Electrodynamics at Stanford. He retired in 2009. Griffiths is a Consulting Editor of The American Journal of Physics and a Fellow of the American Physical Society. In 1997 he was awarded the Millikan Medal by the American Association of Physics Teachers. He has spent sabbaticals at SLAC Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and University of California Berkeley. Although his Ph.D. was in elementary particle theory his recent research is in electrodynamics and quantum mechanics. He is the author of over fifty articles and four books: Introduction to Electrodynamics (4th edition Cambridge 2013) Introduction to Elementary Particles (2nd edition 2008) Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (2nd edition Cambridge 2016) and Revolutions in Twentieth-Century Physics (Cambridge 2012). Darrell F. Schroeter is a condensed matter theorist. He received his B.A. (1995) from Reed College and his Ph.D. (2002) from Stanford University where he was a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. Before joining the Reed College Oregon faculty in 2007 Schroeter taught at both Swarthmore College and Occidental College. His record of successful theoretical research with undergraduate students was recognized in 2011 when he was named as a KITP-Anacapa scholar.
