The University of Kansas (KU) American Chemical Society Student Chapter, KU Chemistry Club, is an organization that strives to get individuals of all ages interested in the field of chemistry via our scientific outreach events while also developing our member’s undergraduate experience. Whether it’s bringing in professors to discuss their research or providing workshops on resume building and personal statement writing, KU Chemistry Club works extensively to accommodate the interests of all of our members.<br/>              With the University of Kansas lifting the restrictions imposed on the COVID-19 pandemic, KU’s Chemistry Club has made it a primary objective to revitalize the outreach events that have once made our organization beloved by our community. We have accomplished this by collaborating with local student organizations, academic departments, and public safety offices during this year’s Carnival of Chemistry.  The in-person event, reinstated after a two-year hiatus, encourages the exploration of science and chemistry through active demonstrations and sparks elementary and middle school kids' curiosity for STEM careers. Additionally, we have helped Sunset Hill Elementary and other schools organize science nights to showcase experiments to students and parents. Finally, the Chemistry Club sells chemical splash goggles and carbon copy notebooks to support undergraduate general and organic chemistry courses. These sales ensure the club is well-funded to purchase necessary supplies for outreach events.<br/>KU’s Chemistry Club is an organization that seeks to showcase how chemistry and its applications can be used in fun and accessible manners regardless of an individual’s knowledge base. As the worst of the pandemic has subsided, we aim to restore the club’s prominence on campus and work on more innovative ways to impact our community.
