Roger Williams University Student Affiliates began the academic year with a school-wide exhibition of homemade liquid nitrogen ice cream to garner student interest in chemistry and the RWU ACS affiliate chapter as a social outlet. The affiliates attended RI ACS local section fall meeting at which Dr. John P. Jasper spoke about industrial batch auditing and process patent protection.  As part of the group's effort to promote chemistry, at RWU late night programming Roger After Dark we presented chemistry demonstrations; elephant tooth paste, super conductor, flame test.  Additionally the RWU ACS chapter produced a week long mural display to educate students on sources of renewable energy through chemistry.  We have extended our outreach activities to include performing chemistry demonstrations at local high schools students via in-class demonstrations focusing on green chemistry such as a looking into phosphate versus non-phosphate cleaning products.
