MEETINGS

40th ACS Southeast Regional Meeting The 40th ACS Southeast Regional Meeting will be held at the Radisson Hotel Atlanta, Nov. 9-11. The three-day meeting is hosted by the ACS Georgia Section. Some 640 papers will be presented by distinguished scientists in the symposia, technical sessions, and poster session. Exhibits of scientific and educational equipment, services, instruments, and publications will be held in conjunction with the meeting. Special events include presentation of the Regional High School Chemistry Teacher Award, and three workshops: SARA Title III Risk Communication, CHEMCOM, and Document Preparation and Database Management in the Laboratory. A mixer will be held on Wednesday evening in the Exhibit Hall, and on Wednesday morning, a Women Chemists breakfast will be held in the Tara I Room. Delta Air Lines, the official conference carrier, is offering special rates that afford a 5% bonus off most Delta published roundtrip fares within the U.S. and San Juan, provided all rules and conditions of the airfares are met. Discounts up to 75% off the normal roundtrip day coach fares are included in this offer. Call (800) 241-6760 from 8 AM to 8 PM EDT daily and refer to file number U0466. If flying to Atlanta, the MARTA rail service runs from Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport to downtown Atlanta. From the airport take MARTA to the Peachtree Center Station (Station N-l), which is within two blocks of the RaSPECIAL EVENTS TUESDAY 6:00-9:00 lobby

Letters essary to know science to use them. It is more important that everyone under­ stand how the discoveries of science af­ fect our lives and our culture; what sci­ entists do and how they do it; what the scientific method is and how it is used; what other methods of problem solving are available; how to collect and analyze data. Most scientists could use more of this knowledge, but it will not be gotten by taking more courses in science and mathematics. When the faculty votes by a large mar­ gin to reduce the number of science and mathematics courses for nonscientists, they are sending a message that they do not want more of what you want to teach. This does not imply that they think science is unimportant or that their students do not need to under­ stand science and its role in today's world. The rest of the faculty is not the prob­ lem—the science faculty is. Work with representatives of the humanities facul­ ty to find out what they think is impor­ tant. Spend your time listening. Ask questions that help you understand what they really think their students need to know about science and mathe­ matics. When you reach a mutual under­ standing, design a program that they will buy. You may be surprised to find that the science content of the curricu­ lum may increase. This will not be an easy job. It must be a team effort from start to finish, includ­ ing the teaching. Universities and col­ leges must recognize that their purpose is twofold, generating new knowledge and transmitting knowledge to others. The rewards and prestige for each should be comparable. The job may seem hopeless. If it is, it is not because the job is too big, but be­ cause the players are not big enough. Hubert M. Hill Kingsport, Tenn. SIR: All readers of C&EN owe a deep thanks to Frank Westheimer for his sa­ gacious and provocative Priestley Med­ al address. I wish that the address could receive wider readership beyond the precincts of ACS. Perhaps the society would consider dissemination to the ac­ ademic community—particularly presi­ dents, provosts, and deans of our col­ leges and universities. Westheimer's analysis of science literacy and knowl­ edge is so perceptive and on target that it merits consideration by all who are concerned with education and the fu­ ture quality of life in America. Many years ago I had the opportunity to address a statewide convention of the New Jersey Science Teachers Associa­ tion. I made the point that more scien­

tists knew some facets of the liberal arts—be it music, poetry, literature, his­ tory, or painting—as compared to nonscientifically trained persons who had an awareness of fundamentals in the physical and life sciences. I tried to chal­ lenge the audience to add to their teach­ ing activities by proselytizing their nonscience teacher colleagues to have them learn more about the biological and physical world. In this way, it is hoped they could convey the appreciation of science to students inclined to a liberal arts, posthigh school education or work experience. I wish I had some of the ideas of Westheimer to sell to the audi­ ence. Eliot Steinberg Morristown, N.J. SIR: Regarding Westheimer's Priestley Medal address—agreed, we need more science taught in our universities. How­ ever, this is not likely to come about until its payoff is shown in extra-scien­ tific fields (as currently defined). I believe this is slowly but surely com­ ing about in applying thermodynamic principles, and simple kinetic models, to processes once thought to be intracta­ ble social processes. Frank Holloway Tega Cay, S.C. SIR: In his Priestley Medal address on the education of nonscientists, Frank Westheimer makes several good points, two of which I will comment on. First, he states that the Harvard facul­ ty scientists voted against more science for nonscientists because they didn't want nonscientists in their courses. To correct this situation we must ask why this attitude prevailed. A primary an­ swer is that teaching rather general ma­ terial to nonspecialists will not rein­ force the faculty research work (they feel). Professors (those who are re­ tained) reflect the attitude of the deans (read "money managers") who often tell one that they can't evaluate good teach­ ing, and therefore give it zero value. With teaching valued in this way, it is obvious that faculty will minimize that sort of teaching that does not contribute to their research work. Second, Westheimer states that spe­ cial courses in science are not needed because "humanists have a different kind of intelligence," but rather because of the vertical nature of science. The lat­ ter argument is true; however, both ex­ perience and modern educational psy­ chology tell us that intelligence has many components that are not uniform­ ly distributed among people or within each person. Some people are not as talContinued on page 55
