Community Outreach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In an effort to attract young people to science in rural Eastern Oregon, the chemistry club hosts annual magic shows for grade school and middle school students. These shows are a great source of entertainment and education for students, and allow them to experience the “explosive” side of chemistry! Many members of the chemistry club and chemistry department also participated in Girls in Science, a day-long event that brings over 100 girls, sixth to eighth grade, to solve a scientific mystery. In addition, the club has also volunteered with the annual EOU Robotics Competition and Boy Scouts of America.<\/p>\n\n\n

At national meetings, students present research posters at undergraduate sessions, and are also able to attend various workshops and lectures pertaining to new research in chemistry. Students also have the opportunity to learn about graduate school and job opportunities in the great field of chemistry.
