Re: CHAS programming at SERMACS

All - If you are attending the Southeastern Regional Meeting (SERMACS) this fall, please consider attending the Friday morning symposium organized by Mark Lassiter and myself, "Learning Laboratory Safety Through Storytelling" - Sponsored by CHAS. Bob Hill is our Keynote speaker and we hope to have an audience engaging panel discussion after his concluding talk.

SERMACS wil be held November 7 to 11 in Charlotte, NC.

I have also organized a workshop "Improving Chemical Safety in Schools" on Friday aimed primarily as Secondary Ed folks (teachers, administrators, museums, etc.), but anyone can register. We have a cap set at 25 due to room size (same room as the morning session) and there is a $5 registration fee. Lunch is included. This 2 hour workshop is co-sponsored by CHAS, CCS, and the ACS High School Office.

Thanks and let me know if you have any questions about either event.
Sammye
