Nina McClelland
Nina McClelland, 90, died on Aug. 16 in Toledo, Ohio.
“Nina was passionate about a lot of things, but two that stick in my mind are green chemistry—that’s well known—and standards. By standards, I mean setting up rules for how materials are to be manufactured or how they are to be operated. Nina saw standards as the rules of the game, which if set intelligently and maintained vigorously improved the quality of products and the quality of our lives. Nina greatly enhanced the standards in the areas of water and plumbing. Prosaic, perhaps, to some, but essential to life, and they were Nina’s life’s work.”—William F. Carroll Jr., friend and colleague
