The Saint Francis University Chemistry Club has maintained a high level of student involvement through different social and service events. The Chemistry Club hosts a welcome picnic, wiffleball games, camping trips, holiday gatherings, and farewell events. Each semester, the club hosts a T-shirt design competition to enhance club visibility on campus. In addition, the club engages in service through the Rural Outreach Chemistry for Kids (R.O.C.K.) program. The R.O.C.K. program has been in operation for 20 years, annually hosting over 3000 K-12 students through a number of outreach activities, both on and off campus. The focus of the R.O.C.K. program is to have K-12 students actively involved in chemistry-related activities. Students within the club also serve as peer tutors for various science courses on campus and also actively serve the community. The Chemistry Club fosters environmental awareness and the use of green practices both in the lab and in the community.
