For the past few years, the Seattle Pacific University ACS Student Affiliate chapter has been involved with students in the sciences through various quarterly activities. These student activities include events with professors to foster relationships as well as events to encourage discussions between chemistry students. The SAACS has also provided students with lab coats and notebooks through quarterly sales. This year, the SAACS will be focusing on science education in two applications: First, through forums on current issues in science designed to increase science awareness on the Seattle Pacific University campus; and second, through science demonstrations for local elementary and middle schools. We will present on our past, current, and future activities, events, and successes.
