Gamma Sigma Epsilon

Gamma Sigma Epsilon Gamma Sigma Epsilon is a national chemistry honor society founded in 1919 at Davidson College. Chapters are guided by their own locally elected officers.

The purpose of Gamma Sigma Epsilon, as summed up by one of its founding fathers, Malcolm Ray Doubles, was to “unite those men with a high scholastic grade in Chemistry, in Class A colleges, in order to foster a more com prehensive and cooperative study of that great branch of Science and its immediately allied studies”. Its other founders were Manley Arphew Siske and Lewis Porter Good. In 1931 the

"fraternity" went co-ed and became an "honor society." Today, there are over forty active chapters throughout the United States. The National Society is governed by an Executive Council of elected national officers. The National Society meets in biennial conventions for the purpose of governance, fellow ship, and scientific exchange in the form of invited lectures and student research presentations. Each individual giving a paper at the biennial convention receives $25 (the John F. Conn Award), and the outstanding paper presenter receives $50 (the W. Allan Powell award). The DeLap-Holcomb scholarship of $100 and the Roy W. Sonntag award (non-cash award up to $50 value, such as a membership in the American Chemical Society) are given at the local level annually at the discretion of the local chapter to a worthy junior or senior chemistry major.

Dr. Fauci deserves better than being harassed, and we deserve better than our congressional representatives leading such an embarrassing witch hunt.
