As one of the most active clubs on campus, the EOU ACS Student Chapter participates in many school activities, community outreach programs and professional engagements. This year marked the ninth annual �Girls in Science�, a day where sixth to eighth grade girls used experimental techniques to solve a mystery. Chapter members also organized a Saturday Science program for minority students where participants learned about nutrition. Other events that promoted science in the community included the Eastern Oregon robotics competition, magic shows incorporating IYC themes, celebrating Earth Day and judging a science fair at a local elementary school. Eight student members attended the ACS national meeting in Anaheim, CA, to present research in various fields of chemistry and receive an outstanding award for activities conducted in the previous year. Additional networking opportunities were provided to members through speakers and interactions with scientists from the ACS Local Section.
