Congrats to our newest wizards!

They joined another of our chemistry majors, Kathryn Pierson, at commencement on December 14. Kathryn received her wizard hat in Spring 2024 when she finished up her chemistry requirements, and graduated this Fall with a bachelors in chemistry, with dual emphases of ACS Certified Professional and ACS Certified Biochemistry.
