In case you did not notice, last week was National Chemistry Week, and last Saturday was Mole Day. If it slipped by without you contributing to the festivities don't worry, next year is the International Year of Chemistry. The goals of the International Year are to spread the good news of chemistry to the citizenry. Now is the time to start thinking about how you will contribute.
While I am thinking about how to celebrate chemistry I am also thinking about the all important Department Halloween Party.
I am thinking that this year I will really terrify and go as an Organic Exam. Baby blue sheet enblazened with the text normally found on a Blue Book including the bar code on the back lower corner. Make sure to fill in the student name and the all important course info. You could have the family go as labware, but DO NOT suggest that your spouse go as a pear flask. (You will get no treats.) I recommend suggesting a stirring rod complete with a nice rubber policeman hat. Better yet, a white sheet can become the organic exam questions. Put questions on the front and back.
Just remember that celebrating is about having fun.
