BarberAssociate Professor of Psychology (1993).James Hall - Rector Complex Room 1223(717) 245-1641 | barber@dickinson.edu B.A., California State University at Fresno, 1979; M.A. University of California at Berkeley, 1984; Ph.D., 1987.Ganoe Award for Inspirational Teaching, 2006-07; Dickinson Award for Distinguished Teaching, 2007-08.She is a behavioral neuroscientist, teaching classes that examine the relationship between the nervous system and behavior, including neuropsychology, the study of damaged brains and impaired behavior. Her research focuses on the biological changes induced in the nervous system by learning.
R. David Crouch, Jr.Professor of Chemistry; Director of the Dickinson Science Program in Norwich, England, 2010-12 (1994).crouch@dickinson.edu | Visit Web SiteB.A., Duke University, 1978; M.S., Shippensburg University, 1985; M.A., Johns Hopkins University, 1988; Ph.D., 1991.His research interests lie in the development and application of new organic synthetic methodology. Current work is focused on the development of a new alpha adrenergic agonist and continued investigations of new methods for selectively deprotecting silyl ethers. Another area of interest is the development of new organic chemistry exercises on the microscale and using microwave technology.

He spent the next five years as assistant professor of psychology at Minnesota State University before coming to Dickinson. His research area is in cognitive neuroscience where he attempts to link specific brain functioning to higher-order cognitive tasks such as visual discrimination, multi-tasking, and imagination. Recently, he has focused more on how these processes may differ under stressful situations.
