Meeting Schedule 2008/09:
Executive Planning Committee meets 3 times per quarter
Campus Advisory Committee meets 1 time per quarter
FALL: Oct. 26 @ 12:30pm for a CAVS sponsored
luncheon with Professor Giguere in the Porter Faculty Gallery to discuss
how faculty colleagues can collaborate on interdisciplinary projects/exhibitions/catalogues.
Prof. Giguere will also be speaking later on Oct. 26 @ 5pm at Baskin
Arts D101 for a lecture on the "Molecules That Matter" exhibition.
Professor Giguere conducts research with undergraduates in the area
of organic synthesis. His interests range from the application of microwaves
to conduct organic reactions to development of novel intramolecular
cyclizations, such as tandem intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions and
intramolecular allyl cation cycloadditions. This work has resulted in
the publication of over twenty-five articles, many of which have undergraduates
as co-authors. Since 1983 over one hundred chemistry majors have conducted
undergraduate research in Giguere's labs. He is currently Skidmore's
Class of 1962 Term Professor of Chemistry and Chair of Chemistry Department
there.
