During his career of more than 35 years at Dow, he successfuly applied his chemistry knowledge and other skills he learned at NDSU in multiiple technical and business roles. Margaret Stickelmeyer was a home economics major at NDSU and took chemistry and physics as electives because of her love for the sciences.
