Many thanks to everyone who came to our General Interest Meeting/Game Night - we hope you all had a blast! Be on the lookout for more information about our TRIVIA NIGHT coming up on February 27!

(We were too busy playing Two Rooms and a Boom to get many pictures, but we got a few pre-game pizza and dinner photos!)

Thank you to everyone who attended WICI's 5th Annual Fall Harvest Social and made it a success! Special thanks to Wendy Young for a fabulous keynote speech, to the WICI committee for all their hard work, and to the non-WICI graduate students who pitched in to help set-up and clean-up. We are already looking forward to next year's fall social!

WICI's first tie dye was a success! We hope you all enjoyed getting outside and proving that chemists can indeed do awesome things with dye outside of the lab.
