▪ Chemistry Private Tutors: A list of names of Department of Chemistry staff (usually graduate students) willing to be paid tutors for general chemis-
try can be obtained from the General Chemistry Office (CP-120) soon after the beginning of the semester. Tutoring slots fill up fast, so you should
pick up a list as soon as possible if you want a tutor.
▪ SAACS (Chemistry Student Organization) Officers and Members can tutor or mentor students free of charge. Simply stop by CP-144 if interested.
Scholarship Opportunities
▪ The Fulbright Scholarship can be used to do independent research or a 1-year graduate program, or to teach English in one of many countries
around the world. Students may apply as early as the fall of their senior year (with the scholarship period beginning the following fall). Students and
recent alumni are eligible to apply for a Fulbright Scholarship until they receive a PhD. The Fulbright Scholarship is the nation's largest international
exchange program; it facilitates cultural exchange and promotes mutual understanding among Americans and citizens of grantees' host coun-
tries. See http://us.fulbrightonline.org/home.html for more information about the many exciting opportunities Fulbright offers! The campus deadline
for Fulbright Scholarship applications is 9/15/10. For more information contact Dr. Lisa E. Broome-Price, Associate Director, Gaines Center for the
