Position: Professor of Chemistry

Email: pmartino@cn.edu
Joined Carson-Newman in 2011. I have been in academia for the past nineteen years serving primarily as a chemistry faculty member while at 2-year institutions (most recently located in Kalispell, Montana for 17-years and the others located in Wisconsin). I have served as both division chair and/or department chair during that time while initiating an active undergraduate research program. I have been the lead PI on two successful National Science Foundation grants.
I teach organic, biochemistry, general chemistry with the associated lab courses and have put an emphasis on leading undergraduate research. My research area involves biological mass spectrometry- a field that has greatly magnified over the past twenty years and since my work as a member of one of biological mass spectrometry’s pioneering research groups out of the University of Virginia. I am currently working on developing a new tool for structural biology that involves fast covalent labeling (or “painting”) biological molecules followed by mass spectrometry analysis. Imagine spray-painting a crumpled piece of paper, and then unfolding it and analyzing the pattern of paint… in many cases you can discern how the paper was folded. We are employing a similar strategy to study how biological molecules fold, misfold, bind to targets, and/or change shape.
My wife along and our seven children are in the process of relocating our home base from Montana (near Glacier National Park) to Eastern Tennessee. We enjoy camping, hiking, and serving the Lord together as we are able. I am an avid fly fisherman and have even split my own cane to construct a few custom flyrods as a hobby. We were active members of our church back in Montana (Easthaven Baptist Church) and are in the process of locating a church home in Tennessee.

Email: jmcclellan@cn.edu
Professor John McClellan is Assistant Professor of Philosophy. He received his B.A. in Philosophy from UNC-Greensboro in 2004 and is close to finishing his Ph.D. in philosophy from UT-Knoxville where he began his graduate studies in 2005. His research interests include the philosophy of religion, ethics, epistemology, and philosophy of mind. His dissertation-in-progress entitled “Theistic Skepticism and the Ethics and Epistemology of Trust” critically examines the view that Christian belief is rational even without an adequate account of God’s reasons for allowing suffering on the basis that we cannot expect to recognize and understand the reasons of an omnipotent mind. Professor McClellan lives in an on-campus apartment in Heritage Hall with his wife Laura and dog Hank, and so, is especially available for conversations with students.

Kenneth Morton

Position: Professor of Chemistry
Campus Phone: 865-471-3259
Campus Box: 71884
BS: Chemistry, Mississippi College, 1969
PhD: Biochemistry, University of Texas at Austin, 1975,
Postdoctoral: National Center for Toxicological Research, Jefferson Arkansas
Research Associate: Michigan Cancer Foundation, Detroit Michigan. I have 15 peer-reviewed papers in the field of chemical carcinogenesis.
(For full resume, click here.)
I joined Carson Newman in 1984. I teach Physical Chemistry I and II and the lab for Biochemistry I, but the largest number of students I teach are in 100-level courses: General Chemistry I and II for all science majors, Introductory Chemistry for nursing and dietetics, and Chemistry in Controversy for general education (non-science majors). Over the years I have had a number of students involved in undergraduate research projects ranging from the metabolism of the carcinogen methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline) to poison ivy prevention to the thermodynamics of sublimation of naphthalene (Knudsen cell method). I have other project ideas waiting in the wings for the right students and timing; one of these is analysis of heavy metal content in the sediment in our local creek (Mossy Creek). I have authored several successful equipment proposals on behalf of the chemistry department.
I have been at Carson-Newman for 25+ years and love the natural beauty of East Tennessee. Several years ago my wife and sons and I embarked on a multi-year process of self-building a passive solar “green” home. I am an active member of a local church (First Baptist) and have co-led CN students on short-term mission trips to Haiti. I have had the privilege of having both of my sons in class here at CN.
