It's the same strategy graduate programs resorted to when enrollment started dropping. Americans realizing that chemistry grad school is a losing bet? Get foreigners to enroll instead! Added bonus: you get to use threats of deportation/empty green card promises over them as motivation!Stir The Potnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-69507313304459098622013-08-20T08:15:12.043-04:002013-08-20T08:15:12.043-04:00Probably work as well as the digital edition of CE...Probably work as well as the digital edition of CEN.

Mostly, it will help them retain the members that they already have instead of getting new members (points 1-3). Sure, it will help them get some professionals (point 3) and a few collegiate members (point 4), but will those numbers be enough to make up for the loss in membership due to retirements and those changing fields?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-33709179422691871462013-08-19T12:22:52.370-04:002013-08-19T12:22:52.370-04:00I was excited when I saw the first words of the ti...I was excited when I saw the first words of the title.

No. Not right - it's about ACS sticking it to its members with the automatic renewal scam.somedudenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-1815955829528856932013-08-19T12:03:30.678-04:002013-08-19T12:03:30.678-04:00It is a great idea but it would be nice if they fi...It is a great idea but it would be nice if they figured it by themselves, and five years ago, rather than introducing it as a reaction to a declining membership figures. milkshakenhttp://orgprepdaily.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
