Heather and Jessie with guest speaker Dr. Christina
Bailey following her departmental colloquium (sponsored jointly by UGA's
SAACS and the department of chemistry). Dr. Bailey's seminar on integrating
computers into a laboratory and lecture for general chemistry was enjoyed
by many faculty members in addition to the student affiliates. Dr. Bailey
teaches at California Polytechnic State University. |
| UGA's Glass Blowing Shop was kind enough to provide
the Student Affiliates with a tour of their facilities and some insight
into the basics of glassware production. Here, Bob Ketch demonstrates the
repair of large equipment. |

Lee Marek of Naperville North High School in Illinois,
famous for his popular demonstrations on numerous television shows, performed
and explained some stunning chemistry for a sizable audience ranging from
UGA faculty to undergraduate students, to younger children. Mr. Marek was
invited in conjunction with the Northeast Georgia Local ACS chapter. |
| Mr. Marek shrouds himself in a cloud of vapor to
intensify the moment. |

A moment of dawning comprehension for Dr. Bhakta,
