I'm writing to survey institutes of higher learning on the use of NMR
spectroscopy in undergraduate teaching. Presently our nmr facility is
dedicated to research and graduate work, but we are interested in
acquiring a high field nmr spectrometer to enhance our undergraduate
curriculum. My questions are:

1. To what extent do you, or are you, able to incorporate high field nmr
into your undergraduate laboratory curriculum?

2. Do you have high field instruments dedicated to your undergrad
curriculum or is time shared with research instruments?

3. For what courses, and in what way is nmr instrumentation used in your
undergrad curriculum?

Thanks for your input. Please send responses directly to me. I will post
the results FYI.
