Learning a Hard Science: The Chemistry Learning Center with Lisa Blue

Introductory Chemistry can be a challenge, but Lisa Blue, a professor within the Department of Chemistry, eases students' transition to college chemistry with the Chemistry Learning Center. It will serve students of General and Organic Chemistry: answer their questions, provide tutoring, and help students become more confident in their understanding of chemistry.

Doubling Up

The University of Kentucky Chemistry department is excited to welcome two new faculty members, Professors Kenneth Graham and Peter Kekenes-Huskey, to the Bluegrass this summer.

Positive Potential: Valerie Sarge

 

 

Through Paul Laurence Dunbar High School's Math, Science, and Technology Center, high school senior Valerie Sarge is acquiring an impressive set of research skills before she even begins college. Valerie has been working with chemistry professor John Anthony at UK's Center for Applied Energy Research, and is looking at how agricultural byproducts might be able to be used in flexible, low-cost electronics.

 

 

Chemistry Learning Center Devoted to Student Success

Students in introductory-level chemistry courses at the University of Kentucky now have a resource focused on their success. The General Chemistry Learning Center at UK provides introductory assistance to any student taking the courses, including Chemistry 105, with its inaccurate reputation for being a difficult class that "weeds out" students. Lisa Blue, the center's coordinator, says students need to know that help is available.
