As a new teacher, I have learned so much from my colleagues at conferences. I welcome their suggestions and encouragement as I develop strategies that insure my students will be engaged, excited, and ultimately successful as I facilitate their mastery of Chemistry…..Thanks again to NESACS for awarding to me the Lyman Newell Grant.
Grants-in-AidThe availability of the Grants-in-Aid to assist undergraduates to attend the National ACS Meeting in Chicago, IL in March 2007 has been announced. The information will appear in THE Nucleus. Letters have been sent to all of the colleges and universities that have chemistry majors, the information is posted on the NESACS web site, and the information has been distributed using our student affiliate database. The deadline for the receipt of completed applications for the Grants is November 2, 2006. Abstracts for the Undergraduate Research Poster Session must be received by electronic transmission at the ACS National Headquarters by November 14, 2006 (11:59 pm EST).
Connections to ChemistryThe Connections to Chemistry program is scheduled for Burlington High School (Burlington, MA) on Wednesday, October 18th, 3:30 – 8:00 PM. Five different workshops are scheduled including a workshop on engineering in chemistry, a National Chemistry Week workshop on paints and coatings, and a workshop on starting a high school chemistry club, one of the new initiatives of the Education Division of the ACS. Terri Taylor, the Manager of the ACS Office of High School Chemistry in Washington will be giving that workshop. (Her office is also donating 150 of the canvas ChemED bags for the program from the BCCE program held at Purdue University this past summer.) Dr. Daniel Nocera, Professor of Chemistry and W. M. Keck Professor of Energy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology will give the evening address: The Energy Future of Our Planet.
Steve Lantos, HS Ed. Chair, I just returned from the Nat'l Meeting in SF. At SOCED, we heard from the current
and upcoming High School Day coordinators for both the SF and March 2007 Chicago meetings about the exciting programs they have put together for attending high school teachers. With the Boston 2007 meeting less than a year away, I was eager as the Boston coordinator to learn from the SF and Chicago coordinators about their programs. As in 2002, I will be asking NESASCS, local host to the Boston national meeting, to again consider assisting in the funding for the high school day.
Newly convened, the High School Day Planning Task Force, chaired by Michael Tinnesand of the Ed. Div. Office met to discuss ways to streamline the process of organizing the High School Day for future meetings. Several coordinators from recent national meetings were present to offer their suggestions for upcoming HS Day programs. I look forward to a rich and well-attended HS Day in August 2007!

Board of Publications: M. Filosa Planning has begun for the special August ACS edition of the Nucleus. Concern of
the moment is getting enough content. Possible ideas include blurbs from Rhode Island and Central MA sections.
o Will want to make good use of the NESACS website in highlighting special NESACS activities during the ACS meeting.
Ongoing discussion on getting a website accuracy / oversight subcommittee. o Recommendation to use councilors, alternate councilors, and directors-at-
large.
Nucleus: M. Filosa The October issue has an NCW ad from the Central MA section. The Nucleus is still on budget. Community Service at the Fall National ACS Meeting – The Nucleus is interested in
running an article about the community service initiative in the Nucleus. If you participated and would be interested in writing or being interviewed about your experience please email Marilou Cashman and let her know ASAP.
Professional Relations: M. Chorgadhe 2 professional recruiters who will be doing resume reviews, and career services at
most monthly meetings are joining career services committee. Three section members attended today’s career services table.
All national ACS career services information has gone electronic.
Continuing Education Committee: Alfred Viola, For the past dozen years the Committee has offered Short Courses supplied by
National’s Office of Continuing Education on a twice-a-year basis. The director of that Office, Harry Walsh, retired as of June 30 of this year and his successor is still very new at the job.
Because of diminishing enrollments and revenues from their Course offerings at National Meetings, the new Director decided to ship packages of their courses to various regions and has targeted the New England Region for one of the first experiments along these lines. Consequently, the Boston area will experience a plethora of Short Courses this fall. Jim Ryan, the new Director, apologized for not getting in touch with us and we will better coordinate our efforts in the future. National is in no position to compete with us since our registration fees are about half of their charges and, consequently, is not anxious to release any of their more popular courses for our use. We have therefore agreed to skip our presentation for this fall and work out a mutually agreeable system for next spring.
Corporate Fundraising: D. Phillips There are 10 vendors at today’s vendor fair.

o A $5K donation from Sepracor has been arranged for this meeting.
NCW Report: Christine Jaworek-Lopes On July 31, 2006 at Emmanuel College, we held an NCW/Brauner Committee
preparatory session for NCW 2006. Testing of the potential hands-on activities occurred that day.
Hands-on activities/demos include: comparing types of boards and nails, demonstrating that wood is a strong polymer, windows and UV effectiveness, making silly putty using Elmer’s glue, comparing water and oil based paints, making paint, observing the stability of skyscrapers, soil erosion, recycling of juice boxes, recycling in general,
A volunteer prep day for NCW is scheduled at Emmanuel College at 10 am on September 30, 2006. This will give the volunteers an opportunity to try the demos the prior to the day of the event. Staff from MOS and the Boston Children’s Museum will be onsite to discuss volunteering at those venues.
Christopher Morse has designed a word search puzzle for grades 1-6 and a double crostic for grades 7-12. Solving these puzzles provides you the instructions on what to submit for the puzzle competition. Grades 1-6 will be submitting haikus and grades 7-12 will be submitting crostics based on elements.
Four separate school systems have contacted me regarding the 2006 poster competition.
The unifying event for NCW 2006 is a home safety fair. The Office of Community Activities has donated some materials to us but the remaining materials must be purchased (though at a discount).
Bassam Shakhashiri will be presenting the Phyllis A. Brauner Memorial Lectures as part of the NCW festivities at Wellesley College on October 22, 2006 at 11 am and 2 pm. Tickets may be reserved through Marilou Cashman.
Boston Latin and a school in Malden will be volunteering at the MOS events. Merck will also be sending volunteers and making a donation.

Councilor’s Reports on San Francisco 2006 meeting. Lawrence T. ScottAttended my first ACS council meeting on Wednesday Morning, September 13. Voted on behalf of the NESACS in the election of members to the national ACS committee on committees: 3 of the 4 candidates for whom I voted were elected. Voted on behalf of the NESACS in the election of members to the national ACS council policy committee: 2 of the 4 candidates for whom I voted were elected. Voted on behalf of the NESACS in the election of members to the national ACS committee on nominations and elections: 2 of the 5 candidates for whom I voted were elected. A lengthy debate ensued concerning the propriety of this last committee nominating its own members for reelection. No motion or change in the rules followed. Another 30-40 minutes of the meeting was devoted to an unstructured discussion (brainstorming) on ways to engage younger ACS members better in the operations and governance of the ACS; most of the ideas suggested were not new.
I was senior author on two papers presented orally by Boston College students at the meeting:
Vikki M. Tsefrikas and Lawrence T. Scott, “Progress Toward the First Chemical Synthesis of a Single Walled Carbon Nanotube” (ORGN 866).
Thomas J. Hill , Richard K. Hughes, and Lawrence T. Scott, “Progress Towards the Synthesis of a C60H12 Armchair Nanotube End-Cap Utilizing a 1,3-Shift of Hydrogen” (ORGN 867).
Visited with presenters in the Academic Employment Initiative (AEI) session. In this relatively new program at the fall ACS meeting, Ph.D. students and postdocs who are in the market for academic jobs post their CVs on-line in advance and then stand by a poster on Monday evening (concurrent with SCI-MIX, in the same exhibit hall) that describes their scientific accomplishments and future ambitions (research proposals). The chair of our department’s faculty search committee identified attractive candidates for our openings a week before the meeting, and I visited with each one.
Attended the ACS reception for authors & reviewers, where I orchestrated a scientific collaboration between friends of mine from Utah and Japan who had not met each other before.
Attended most sessions of the presidential sessions on “SWNTs From Synthesis to Application, From the Lab to the Fab: In Memory of Dr. Richard Smalley” Sunday through Wednesday. This interdisciplinary symposium brought together virtually all of the principle scientists from the U.S. and abroad who were involved with the discovery of and early development of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes. Advances in nanotechnology and in efforts to improve the capture of solar energy dominated the program. Attended SCI-MIX on Monday evening and numerous presentations in the technical sessions of the organic chemistry division on Sunday through Thursday.

Northeastern Section of the American Chemical SocietyBoard of Directors
Woburn MASeptember 19, 2006
to advance the idea as worthy of further consideration by the cognizant committee and/or interested groups; to refine the idea which will be sent back to the Governance Review Task Force for further consideration; or to place the idea in a “stop” category as an idea that will receive no further consideration as part of the governance review. Councilors received a listing of the 23 ideas organized into the three categories as prioritized jointly by the Board and CPC.
Registration Report and 2007 National Meeting Registration Fee
As of September 12, 2006, the ACS fall national meeting had attracted 15,603 registrants. Totals in select categories are as follows: Regular attendees 9,373; Students 3,350; Guests 510; Exhibit Only 504; and Exhibitors 1,666. The Committee on Meetings and Expositions reported that national meeting financial targets continue to be met, and therefore recommended to the Board of Directors that there be no increase in national meeting registration fees for 2007.
The Society’s Membership
The Committee on Membership Affairs reported that through August 2006, a record 12,137 new applicants have been added to the Society’s membership, and that the Member-Get-A-Member campaign is well on its way to the goal of 1,000 new members in this year.
