Promoting a love for Chemistry and the sciences is not always as easy as it may seem, even at one of the East Coast's top undergraduate engineering institutions � Drexel University. Over the past two years, our chapter has made great strides to gather campus attention and increase student involvement with creative fundraisers, volunteering opportunities, and fun chemistry-themed social events.  Last fall, we held our first annual �Buckeyball� Soccer tournament in tribute to everyone's favorite C60 allotrope of carbon.  This event encompassed diverse groups of undergraduate and graduate students from around the University, educated the participants about nanotechnology with a short presentation, and also brought revenue into our organization for use at later events.  By having large events occasionally and frequent small get-togethers the Drexel student ACS chapter is able to keep a dedicated student body where anyone can come to learn and share their love of science.
