Dr. Fran Rosevear passed away on July 5, 2010.  Dr. Fran Rosevear was one of the gentlemen who laid the foundations of our understanding of soap and surfactant phases.  Even though he retired from P&G in 1976, his photomicrographs on using polarized light microscopy to identify surfactant phases are still being used by many at the company today.  He was one of the pioneers and it is sad news to hear of his passing.

Locally based career services are becoming much more essential to ACS members who are actively seeking employment as well as to employers looking for local talent. This Local Section Career Program is a national program designed to equip local sections with materials and other information needed to offer employment assistance to members in their geographic regions.

The goals of this new program are:

• Provide members with career and employment information at the local level.
• Enhance professional networking opportunities with other chemical professionals and employers.
• Provide avenues for all groups to communicate.
• Equip local section volunteers with training and support materials to facilitate this process.
