Greetings from the Regional Meetings Committee, Spring 2025

Greetings from the Regional Meetings Committee (RMC). The RMC plays a crucial role in promoting DivCHED through (1) oversight of the ACS DivCHED Regional Awards for Excellence in High School Teaching, (2) ensuring that Chemical Education Programming is part of each Regional Meeting, and (3) providing a physical DivCHED presence at regional meetings.

Want to expand DivCHED’s impact in your region? Getting involved with the RMC is a great way to contribute. We welcome volunteers from any region but urgently need representation in the Central, Great Lakes, Northeast, and Northwest regions. Even one volunteer can make a significant impact!

🔊Ways to Help:

  • Know someone that might be interested in the RMC? Encourage them to reach out!
  • Attending a regional meeting? Let us know if you are willing to informally represent the division at your regional meeting.
  • Interested in joining our committee?  Self-nominate using the Nominations for Committees form. Please be sure to mention your interest in the RMC. 

We look forward to hearing from you!
