The academic year is coming to a close, which means its time to party! Great times at the end of the year chemistry party, time to be in community with each other and relax before finals.

Yesterday was the Loras Legacy Symposium where the whole campus takes time to share their creative, research, or experiential work. It is truly one of the best days you could be on campus. Our chemistry students got to share their research to faculty and students across campus.

Congratulations to our students who won awards last night at the Loras Student Awards evening. Honors, Faculty/Staff Scholarship, Monsignor George N. Schulte Scholarship, Top Chemistry & Biochemistry, First-Year Chemistry award, Stanek Award, and John G. Heath Memorial Award in Psychology. All very deserving.

On Wednesday, Loras College, Clarke University, and University of Dubuque got together for the 3rd annual TriCollege STEM Poster Symposium. Great time for students to get feedback from different faculty, see the other great science going on in the city, and a chance to hear from a recent Clarke alumni who is about to finish her Ph.D. at University of Iowa. We even gave out awards to some of the best presenters. Looking forward to doing this again.
