Chemistry and chemical engineering. (Divisional Reports).There were 22 oral and 16 poster presentations at the 2003 meeting for a total of 38 presentations. The presentations were consistently good, with many graduate and undergraduate students participating. The sessions went smoothly and we stayed very close to the posted schedule. Many of the presenters used Power Point for their talks, which caused a few problems as we worked to synchronize See synchronization. laptops and projectors. We may want to think through providing a laptop Same as laptop computer. laptop - portable computer and projector but specifying the version of Power Point and the fonts to be used.

The poster session A poster session is the juried presentation of research information by representatives of several research teams at a congress or conference with an academic or professional focus.

The posters varied widely in quality, though the competition for the top spots was tough. The students all seemed very well prepared to discuss their work, and the projects ranged over a wide range of topics. Our 38 presentations this year is down from 42 in 2002 and significantly less than our average over the last six years. This is unfortunate, as the papers given demonstrated the breadth and quality of work being done in this state. I wish that more faculty would take advantage of this opportunity for their students to practice their oral presentation skills or to gain experience at creating a technical poster.
