Thiel College has had an active chapter of the American Chemical Society Student Affiliates (ACS-SA) for more than 35 years.  We are quite proud of the accomplishments of the individuals that have been members and of the accomplishments of the organization.  The Student Affiliates have been honored by the ACS by being awarded nine Outstanding, five Commendable and eight Honorable Mention awards in its 37 year history.
