New Announcements--- ROOT BEER MAKING COMPETITION!
The first annual root beer making competition will take place this fall. Groups or individuals who wish to participate should register by Friday, October 17, 2008. Prizes will be awarded. Judging is based on marketability, understanding of chemistry involved, overall presentation of product, and taste. (So even if your root beer leaves something to be desired on the palate, if it looks good you could still win!) For a full list of rules and/or answers to other questions contact the club president Lacey Wallace at lwallace@nmu.edu
About us
|
We are an official NMU student organization that is open to all students. Our focus is to promote and engage in activities related to chemistry and biochemistry. We meet Thursdays at 5 p.m. in the Student Resource Room (2203A) on the second floor of New Science Facility.
Our faculty adviser is Dr. Lesley Putman of the Chemistry Department. We have a collection of pamphlets and flyers for various chemistry and chemistry-related graduate programs in our resource room. These materials are available to all students. The resource room is usually open during regular university business hours on weekdays. If the room is not open, please contact the secretary in the Chemistry Department in NSF 3301. |
