Chemistry Club

The Gustavus Chemistry Club became a Student Chapter of the American Chemical Society in December of 2009. Chem Club is a scholarly organization open to chemist and non-chemist alike, that provides education to the youth of the community, supports research by students, and provides educational programs to the general public by hosting weekly research orientated seminars.
