I am writing to announce a symposium at BCCE that may be of interest to VIPERs or other department members.  The Biennial Conference on Chemical Education will be held at Penn State from July 29-August 2, 2012.  I am organizing a symposium entitled, “Innovative Foundation Courses to Meet the New CPT Guidelines.”  If you are doing something novel or different at the foundation level  I’d encourage you to submit an abstract.
