The Waynesburg University ACS student chapter seeks to bring a knowledge and appreciation of chemistry to not only our University, but also the surrounding community. Our chapter utilizes several events, such as our Homeschool labs and Science Day, to spread interest, information, and experience in the field of chemistry. Our homeschool lab event brings in local students to participate in a hands-on experience in a controlled laboratory setting which is run and organized by our members. Science day allows high school students interested in the STEM fields to visit our campus to participate in lectures, demonstrations, and activities hosted by faculty. They also have the opportunity to discuss with undergraduate students the benefits of majoring in science at the college level. Our chapter has recently added a new activity, the Coffee Lab, in which we invite a local barista to campus to discuss various coffee brewing methods and work with him to test various properties of the brewed product. This event is open to the entire campus.
