The meeting’s hosts will also present several regional awards, including the Southwest Regional ACS Award for contributions to the advancement of chemistry, the E. Ann Nalley Regional Award for Volunteer Service to the ACS, the Southwest Regional Award for Excellence in High School Teaching, and the Stanley C. Israel Regional Award for Advancing Diversity in the Chemical Sciences. Further offerings include an exposition and a graduate school recruiting fair.
