Student Chapter Award Recipients

The Society Committee on Education (SOCED) selects Student chapters to receive special recognition on the basis of their programs and activities, as described in their chapter reports. Awards are classified as outstanding, commendable, and honorable mention. Chapters that do not qualify for either of these awards receive a certificate of achievement for meritorious service.

For the 2007-2008 academic year, we honored 41 outstanding, 69 commendable, and 96 honorable mention chapters. The award-winning institutions, chapter president, report writer, and faculty advisor(s) are listed below. Also listed are chapters that were recognized as “green chapters” for successfully completing green chemistry activities. Join us in congratulating these chapters for a job well done!
