Good Afternoon, This fundraiser is on Thursday, September 27 from 5-7 PM. Last year we had over 200 folks attend, and raised $1,200 for United Way. A fun way to spend a couple of hours and raise money for a Great Cause.

Grad Seminar Announcement - Dr. Lance Lobban
by Mamph, Jennifer A 20 Sep '12

20 Sep '12

Purdue University School of Chemical Engineering GRADUATE SEMINAR SERIES Dr. Lance Lobban Oklahoma State University "Biomass conversion to fuels and chemicals via initial thermal treatment: process options and catalytic reactions" September 25, 2012 9:00-10:15 a.m. FRNY G140 Reception at 8:30 a.m. in Henson Atrium Abstract: The complexity of lignocellulosic biomass causes significant difficulties in its conversion to hydrocarbon or near-hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals. There are certainly similarities in the chemical structure of the primary components (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin), but it is likely that different upgrading strategies would be ideal for each component. Moreover, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are both physically and chemically linked in biomass, and it is difficult to design processes that would allow separate upgrading. Thermal treatment can be used to obtain liquid or gas intermediate streams which are potentially upgradable via heterogeneous or homogeneous processing. This presentation will describe initial thermal treatment steps and subsequent catalytic upgrading reactions/systems that are under investigation at the University of Oklahoma. Bio: Lance Lobban is the Francis W. Winn Chair and Director of the School of Chemical, Biological and Materials Engineering. He joined the University of Oklahoma in 1987 and has been director since 1998. His research interests involve application of principles of reaction engineering and catalysis to various areas including natural gas conversion to fuels and chemicals, photocatalysis for indoor air decontamination, and (most recently) biomass conversion to liquid fuels and chemicals. He holds three patents related to these research areas. He has a long-time interest in innovative teaching methods and improved student learning, and has received several awards from OU related to teaching and student mentoring. Jenni

Dear All, See email below about upcoming lecture related to Ethics, Policy and Science if interested in attending. Thanks, Deb -----Original Message----- From: gradcontacts-bounces(a)lists.purdue.edu [mailto:gradcontacts-bounces@lists.purdue.edu] On Behalf Of Mason, Linda J Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2012 3:40 PM To: 'Gradchairs(a)purdue.edu'; 'gradcontacts(a)purdue.edu' Subject: [Gradcontacts] FW: Ethics, Policy, and Science Lectures: Erin McKenna Dear all, Inaugurating the 2012-2013 year for the Purdue Lectures in Ethics, Policy, and Science (www.purdue.edu/bioethics) Dr. Erin McKenna will speak on "Using our Best Friends: A Pragmatist Take on Dogs and Cats in Biomedical Research" in MRGN 121 at 5:30pm on Wednesday, September 26th. Dr. McKenna is a Purdue alumna; she is now Professor of Philosophy at Pacific Lutheran University. The Lectures have yet to hear either a Pragmatist or Feminist take on questions of biomedical research, and so we look forward to how Dr. McKenna will further the dialogue. Additionally, as always, food and drink will be freely available. We would greatly appreciate your help advertising these talks. Please encourage your students to attend and distribute the attached fliers widely. Thank you for your support, Jacob Kuhn -- Jacob Kuhn Department of Philosophy Purdue University www.purdue.edu/bioethics

United Way
by Heide, Karen Kay 17 Sep '12

17 Sep '12

Dear All, I am the United Way representative for Chemical Engineering this year. You will be receiving an envelope in the next couple of days. Please return them to me at your earliest convenience. United Way is a wonderful foundation, which helps developing solutions for poverty, tackling homelessness and supporting groundbreaking reading programs in local schools .... United Way of Greater Lafayette is right there, helping build extraordinary futures for many, and we need your support. For the past 23 years, Purdue's United Way campaign has helped our community connect, educate, and involve students, faculty, staff and retirees in the care and nurturing of our local community. United Way of Greater Lafayette's goal this year is $4.7 million. Purdue needs to raise $745,000 of this amount. Please make a donation again this year or give the for the first time to assure the important work of United Way of Greater Lafayette will continue. If you are interested in giving at a leadership level, a grant from the Indiana Association of United Ways and the Lilly Endowment, will match every new or increased unrestricted dollar contributed through the vanguard program dollar for dollar. Local families, individuals, children and the elderly benefit greatly from y our gift. The work these agencies do, and the support they give to those in need of a helping hand, go a long way toward keeping our community, safe, secure, and a very special place to live. "Building Extraordinary Futures" - together we can make this happen! If you have questions about Purdue's United Way campaign we would be delighted to talk with you. Maryann Santos de Barona is the 2012 United Way Campaign Chairman, Purdue University, Dean of College of Education.
