ACS Chapter Recognized Nationally

The UT Tyler Student Affiliate Chapter of the American Chemical Society has been selected to receive an honorable mention for its activities conducted during the 2002-03 academic year.

The chapter will be honored March 28 at the 227th ACS National Meeting in Anaheim, Calif., and will be recognized in the ACS national newsmagazine, Chemical & Engineering News, and the student affiliates magazine, Chemistry.

“This is the fifth consecutive year that the UT Tyler chapter has been recognized nationally as an outstanding, commendable or honorable mention chapter,’’ said Dr. Don McClaugherty, chemistry department chair.

The chapter’s activities during the year included participating in the Texas Adopt-A-Highway Program, presenting chemical magic shows to elementary and middle schools, judging the East Texas Regional Science Fair and providing free tutoring in general chemistry.

Sean Butler served as president and Randa Gates as vice president of the chapter in 2002-03. Faculty advisers are Dr. Neil Gray, associate professor of chemistry, and Dr. Brian Taylor, assistant professor of chemistry.
