Heidelberg University is a small liberal arts university located in northwest Ohio. The undergraduate student population is approximately 1,051, with around 25 chemistry and biochemistry majors enrolled annually. The Heidelberg University Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society (ACS) was reactivated in Fall 2012 after being inactive for more than 20 years. The chapter has earned nine ACS awards since 2013: Commendable Award (2013), Green Chemistry (2013, 2014, 2015, 2017), and Outstanding Award (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017). This poster presents an overview of our chapters efforts to share chemistry and scientific knowledge both on campus and in the local community. Some of our events include: monthly chapter meetings, an ice cream social, Kid’s Corner with the local Elk’s Club, STEM in the Park at BGSU, Young Scientist Day, National Chemistry Week demos, and Fresh Check Day. These events display how our chapter has worked to spread the transformative power of chemistry to our campus and community at broad.
