At Santa Clara, he chaired the department of mathematics for 35 years, from 1967 to 2002.[2][3]
He was the co-author, editor, or co-editor of 15 books, and was editor of Mathematics Magazine from 1986 to 1990.[2][3] Abraham Hillman[4] was his most frequent co-author.
In 2005, Alexanderson won both the Deborah and Franklin Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics,[2][5] and the Yueh-Gin Gung and Dr. Charles Y. Hu Award for Distinguished Service to Mathematics,[2][6] both from the Mathematical Association of America.
