The Polymer Chemistry Division received the "Outstanding Collaboration Between a Local Section and Division Award" with the North Jersey Local Section. The Award was presented as part of the Chem Luminary Awards at the ACS Meeting in Philadelphia. Leaders of the Polymer Division and North Jersey Local Section joined forces to successfully revitalize a Polymer Topical Group in New Jersey by organizing a community of chemists around a first-rate and well-attended symposium on Green Polymers.
