CHEMICAL SAFETY: PROTECTING OURSELVES AND OUR ENVIRONMENT

The ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety (DCHAS) and ACS
Division of Chemical Education (CHEMED) are sponsoring an online 3
credit intercollegiate course for students who have taken General
Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. The course will be offered during
the Fall 2004 semester (or term).

The course will be offered at each of the participating schools with
some local classes and online activities.  Instructors at each of the
participating schools will be actively involved as will their
students.  Assignments, examinations (if any) and grading will be
handled by each participating school.
