The College of Mount Saint Vincent chapter goal is to introduce all students into the realm of not only chemistry but all sciences. In the fall of 2012 we have hosted various events such as an ice cream social, pizza party, halloween party and gathered members to participate in the school blood drive to strengthen the bonds between each member while helping many to overcome their fear of needles, blood, and donating. We have had regular movie days where we have shown documentaries on many subjects of science both natural and medical. During NCW we held a mole scavenger hunt that involved most of the science faculty who would ask the student science based questions in order to win a mole. We held a periodic table of elements bake sale and a tie dye event. We volunteered at the Queens Hall of Science exhibiting fun chemistry demonstrations to people of all ages, focusing especially on young children who have a blossoming interest in the sciences and to spark interest in science where there may have been none before. In order to involve the faculty and utilize them more effectively we sponsored several lectures from the faculty on such subjects as �How to study for science classes� to their research. In the future we look forward to holding more lectures with the professors on other subjects they find interesting.
