Stump a Chemist
Our Senior Chemists are up to it again!
They challenged the public to stump them with their toughest chemistry questions. Using money awarded to them with a Senior Chemists Mini-Grant that was awarded by the national ACS, our chemists set up a table outside of Panera Bread and had a good cup a coffee, good conversations, and a few laughs.
Thanks again to our Senior Chemists Group for keeping our Section fun!
