| Abstract |
|
When I first became a department chair, I discovered 2YC3 (Two-Year College Chemistry Consortium) and travel money at the same time. I attended a meeting in Denver, Colorado, and it changed my professional life. I heard new ideas and met exciting, committed chemistry teachers. When I returned from the meeting, I wondered why we couldn't have similar meetings on a local level. There are numerous two-year colleges in the southeast region of Texas, where I teach, and, in fact, there was already a Gulf Coast Consortium of Two-Year Colleges in place for deans to meet and discuss topics, such as common numbering systems for courses. In the spring of 1987, we came up with a list of chemistry teachers in two-year colleges and invited them to a meeting on our campus, San Jacinto College Central, in the Houston area. The topic for that first meeting was safety.
