Journal Club
Journal Club Thursdays. Each Thursday a green chemistry topic will be announced, and students are expected to find one refereed journal article (as a .pdf file) from any internet source, or from a journal in Maxwell Library. By no later than the following Tuesday, each student will send me their journal article as a .pdf email attachment (or a paper copy if from the library). No duplications, so find your paper ASAP! Each student will give a 5-minute summary of the article that includes the green chemistry relevance.
