The Waynesburg University ACS Student Chapter is dedicated to sharing our passion for chemistry with the campus and surrounding community while expanding our own knowledge. This is done through a multitude of activities throughout the year including inviting speakers to campus, hosting homeschool labs, and participating in larger events such as Chemfest at the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh. Speakers are invited to the campus as a part of our Science Symposium Series and this allows students to learn more about the opportunities available in the field of chemistry. Homeschool labs are led by chapter members and allow local homeschool students to gain experience in a chemistry lab. Chemfest is a two day event organized by the Pittsburgh ACS Local Section during National Chemistry Week at which the Waynesburg ACS Student Chapter performed a demonstration describing the volcanic action on Jupiter’s moon, Io, for groups of elementary aged students.
