DeSales University has been an affiliate of the American Chemical Society for over ten years. The Natural Science Club (NSC), the Association for Women in Science (AWIS), and the Chemistry Demonstrations program are among the most influential science organizations on campus and in the local community. Notably, the NSC hosts an Environment Day each year that attracts approximately 800 elementary students over the course of two days to learn through interactive learning stations led by students and faculty. AWIS participates in local library readings and science demonstrations at local events, and additionally hosts girl scouts on an annual overnight to mentor them and teach them about science. And lastly, the Chemistry Demonstrations program consists of 12-15 interviewed students performing chemistry, physics, and biology experiments in front of a total of 1500 middle and high school students each year. The experiments are performed as live skits with music followed by a visual and spoken explanation by the students.
