I interrupted my vacation today to work at the New Jersey Chemistry Olympics as I have done at NJIT for at least 10 years. High School students from all over NJ come to NJIT and compete in 10 events. I organized and judged the information search. Students were require to build a model of a molecule of an antihistamine of their choice. A chemistry professor would judge the quality of their model. In the information search the students use online databases to answer questions about antihistamines. I sensed that the students had fun doing it. NJIT hopes that this event will attract good high school students to enroll.
