This is Uma Prasad Mallik, a naturalized US citizen, originally from India, living in a small town called Magnolia, AR. Education wise, I have MS in chemistry from University of Kentucky (UK), PhD in chemistry from University of Missouri St. Louis (UMSL), MBA from Southern Arkansas University (SAU) and Graduate Certificate in College Teaching & Learning from Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) program at UK. I taught full time for eight years at college and university level. Before coming to US back in 2002, I completed M.Sc. in Organic Chemistry from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay. Taught for eight years at college and university level (2011-2018). From 2018 Spring just a stay home dad! Badly want to teach but USA is something for people with off color. Proud grandson of an Indian Freedom fighter! I am jobless but not spineless. So, just trying to be useful by sharing whatever I learn so far this forty plus years with hope someone like me, just an average Indian village boy, might feel useful. Thank you!
