Dixie Techs

Popular Prof to sell Invention PLUS Networking & Pizza

Dr. James Lott, a chemistry professor whose innovation is about to hit the big time, will be the featured speaker at the Feb. 12 Dixie Tech Friday. Dr. Lott has invented a spray-on, non-toxic substance which controls dust and enables railroad cars to travel without the required tie-downs.

Dr. Lott is a native Kansan who got his BA and MS degrees at Fort Hays State College before receiving a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Idaho. After teaching college in Missouri for 31 years, he retired to southern Utah, but not for long. He soon was teaching chemistry at Dixie State College where, for another 7 years, his teaching methods helped hundreds of students decipher a difficult topic.

For the past 15 years he’s also been working on the invention in the garage. And now, he’s got a large company ready to purchase the rights. Come and enjoy James’ folksy humor and learn about his long and determined quest to create and sell.
