Education
Robinson began his professional education at the College of Pharmacy of Columbia University in New York City which led to B.S. (1961) and M.S. (1963) degrees in pharmacy. During that period the Columbia College of Pharmacy (since discontinued) possessed on its faculty several rigorously trained and enthusiastic scientists, some of whom had received their graduate education at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. It was this influence that led to his taking his Ph.D. (in 1966) at the School of Pharmacy at Madison, where his major professor was Takeru Higuchi, informally though widely known as 'the father of physical pharmacy'.
