Spring Quarter

Week 9- Inorganic Chemistry Final Exam (comprehensive for this quarter) will be on Monday, Week 10 at 10.30 a.m. in Lab II, 2211. Quantum Mechanics final exam will be on Wednesday of Week 10 at 9 a.m. in Lab II, 2211.

Week 8- Inorganic Chemistry Final Exam (comprehensive for this quarter) will be on Monday, Week 10 at 10.30 a.m. in Lab II, 2211

On Monday of Week 8,  East CAL has been reserved for your use. This is to help you with your HBr analysis. I will be there for a short time after our problem solving session if you need help.

Week 7- If you can help with "Kids and Chemistry" please let me know. Keep your eyes on the Science Carnival web site for updates.

Week 5: Please submit proposals for the Science Carnival. If you can help with "Kids and Chemistry" please fill out a form as well.
Mid term exam schedule is as follows.

  • Monday of week 5 - quantum mechanics
  • Monday of week 6 - inorganic chemistry

Week 4- The ACS Undergraduate Research Symposium will be held this Saturday, April 26th. Please check the agenda on the symposium web site.

Mid term exam schedule is as follows.

  • Monday of week 5 - quantum mechanics
  • Monday of week 6 - inorganic chemistry

Week 2- Inorganic Chemistry will begin with Acid-Base Chemistry (Chapter 6). We plan to finish this during the first two weeks. As soon as we are done with Chapter 6, we will start on Chapter 9.

Dr. Rebecca Sunderman will then begin chapter 7 (Crystalline Solid State) during week 3. Her lectures will start at 9 a.m. (not 8.30) and will go on till noon (with a break in the middle).

Please plan to register for the ACS Puget Sound Section Research Symposium which will be held at the Evergreen State College on April 26th, 2008. Some of you will be presenting your research at this event. All students are required to attend, even if they are not presenting. For more information use the navigation bar to the left to get to the symposium web site.

Week 6 - Quantum Mechanics exam will begin at 9 a.m. on Wednesday in Lab II, 2207 (to give us more space to spread out!). The exam will end promptly at 11 a.m. From 11.30-12.30 we will have the opportunity to listen to a presentation by the candidate for the geology faculty position. Healthy treats will be provided!

On Thursday of week 6, we will be taking the Inorganic Chemistry Mid-term Exam in Lab II, 2207 as well.

Week 5: It is Career Week! Be sure to download the schedule and plan to be there! Vans will be leaving the TESC bus loop at 11.30 a.m. sharp on Thursday to attend the ACS Career Event in Seattle. Be there on time! Drivers, please pick up the vans and get to the bus loop on time.

Week 4: Plan to attend a chemistry talk by Professor Tom Livinghouse of Montana State University on "Metal Templated Natural Product Synthesis. An Application to an Anti-Cancer Agent" on Thursday, Jan. 31st Sem II B1105 from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Flyer announcing this event can be downloaded.

Week 3: Please visit the Masu folder for Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 homework pages from the Inorganic text. Assignments will be given from these.

We still need one van driver for our Career Event field trip. Please get your permits from the college van pool if you are volunteering as a driver.

Exams for this quarter will be during weeks 6 (mid-term) and 10 (finals). All exams will be closed book.

Weeks 1& 2: There are slight changes to the schedule during weeks 1 and 2 to accommodate the presentations of the geology candidates. Please see changes below.

  • Week 1: Wednesday
    9-10 Quantum Mechanics
    10-11 Geology lecture in INS
    11-1 Quantum Mechanics
  • Week 2: Monday
    9-10 Instrumentation Lecture
