Abstract

The Graduate Student Symposium Planning Committee (GSSPC) is a Division of Chemical Education (CHED) sponsored initiative designed to promote graduate student-led programming at American Chemical Society (ACS) National Meetings and to provide an opportunity for graduate students to network with professionals inside and outside the ACS on a topic of student interest. Described here are general suggestions offered by the University of Connecticut's GSSPC (incorporating the collective wisdom of several GSSPC's) that affords critical information for future graduate student groups that wish to serve as a GSSPC, such as the planning, organization, and execution of an ACS National Meeting symposium.
