The Catawba College American Chemical Society student chapter has focused on two primary objectives over the past two years: increasing local interest in chemistry, and career development for club members. To fulfill these goals, Catawba's ACS student chapter hosted many events including chemistry demonstrations, guest speakers, Catawba Club Fair, graduate/medical school visits, and National Chemistry Week activities. ACS student members developed career skills by presenting research at national conferences, such as the 2011 ACS National Meeting in Anaheim, CA and the 2012 Pittcon Conference and Expo in Orlando, FL. The chapter's main method of community outreach has been through three traveling chemistry demonstrations that have been presented at local schools and area events: �Chemistry and Foods� (2011), �The Chemistry of Nano Sand� (2012) and �Chemistry in a Bottle� (2012). This poster will focus on how Catawba's ACS chapter fulfilled its two primary goals over the past two years.
