The Tennessee Technological University (TTU) chapter of Student Members of ACS prides itself on a large number of events to inspire and teach people about chemistry, both on campus and in the community. The TTU chapter strives to be balanced in all aspects and plans activities throughout the year that help members become well-rounded chemistry professionals. Service activities include Cookeville’s Fall Fun Fest where free, hands-on activities are conducted with local children. A community outreach event is always incorporated into National Chemistry Week (NCW) activities and the officers and chapter advisor work with the city government to have the mayor declare NCW for Cookeville each year. Members also help local Girl Scouts earn science badges every spring and conduct outreach events at local schools. Chapter development activities include fundraisers like annual sales of goggles and lab notebooks, a NCW bake sale, holiday fundraisers, and spirit nights at local restaurants, while regular social events including game nights, bowling, and dinners help members relax and get to know one another. Bimonthly meetings keep members informed of all events. Travel to state, regional, and national meetings for members to present research, as well as hosting an alumnus speaker for the annual Golden Eagle seminar and participating in tours of companies and ACS PIB webinars allow members numerous professional development opportunities. Green chemistry is incorporated into as many events as possible. The TTU chapter provides fun experiences to chapter members that enhance their college experience, provide leadership opportunities, and offer preparation for careers in chemistry.
