Abstract

The American Chemical Society is looking to continue and expand its support of two-year college chemistry programs since the recent release of the ACS Guidelines for Chemistry in Two-Year College Programs. A new Task Force on Two-Year College Activities has been assembled with faculty from two-year and four-year institutions. The task force is charged with determining the interest in and viability of strategies for engaging and supporting two-year college programs within the broader higher education community. Input is being sought by the task force from the chemistry community.
