Abstract
What can a professional society with 160,000 members do that can have a special, transformative effect on education in the United States? That is the question posed by the American Chemical Society (ACS) Board of Directors to the newly created Board-Presidential Task Force on Education. The Task Force has these charges: 1. review recommendations contained in national STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education reports released during the past five years; 2. identify specific actions that the Society could undertake in response to these recommendations; 3. create a priority list of actionable items where the Society can have a unique impact on STEM education.
