ACS
Because our club is a recognized student affiliate of the American Chemical Society (ACS), we need to have at least 6 members who are active members of ACS as a student affiliate.  The Cost is ~$19, and all are encouraged to join but is not mandatory.  You can apply for membership at www.acs.org and as a member you recieve a copy of a magazine put out by the ACS.

Guest Speaker
          Dr. Han is looking into co-hosting an event with Tri Beta in which an alumni who is a Forensic Scientist for the state of Illinois, would come and talk with
          students here.  We need to decide on a day for her to come and are awaiting news from Tri Beta.
Getting Chemistry into the Schools 
          Sign up for who is interested and who wants to contact a school (preferably one that you attended or have connection to).  Please contact either Dr.
          Asala (asalak@uww.edu) or Ferg our Secretary if you would like to participate or sign up at the next meeting.  We thought it would be best to do this
          over winter break while we are on break but the younger students aren't. 
Fundraising
         
We voted on whether or not making and selling soap would be a good idea and the general consensus was that it would be a good idea.  Given that it is a
          very Chemistry based idea we could make it a lot of fun.  The idea is to make it relatively soon and sell it right before Christmas break.  Tim is
          coordinating this event adn you can contact him with any questions.  We also would like to do a bake sale and perhaps a hot chocolate sale and a hotdog
          sale.  This money goes to fund the science demonstrations and to fund scholarships in the spring.
