Successful ACS Reception Brings together Chemistry Alumni, Friends, Faculty, and Students
One of the boons of having the ACS national meeting in Boston is that it allows us to host a reception and reach out to friends, old and new. Over 150 people attended our Monday, August 23rd reception, co-hosted by BU Chemistry and the BU Alumni Association, which was held during the 240th National Meeting at the Westin Waterfront. The guests represented alumni, friends, and current faculty and students, who were welcomed by the College of Arts and Sciences Dean, Dr. Gina Sapiro. Dean Sapiro kept her comments light and short, touching briefly on the Department’s many accomplishments in 2010-2011 and saying how much Chemistry has contributed to the University’s standing both in education and research.
