Two LSUS students have been honored for their academic achievements by the Northwest Louisiana Section of the American Chemical Society.

At its April meeting, the section presented Ashley Davis, a freshman biology (physician’s assistant) major from Shreveport, with the CRC Press Freshman Chemistry Achievement Award, and Josh Lesniewski, a Shreveport biochemistry major, with the Polymer Organic Award.

The CRC Press award recognizes the outstanding student in the freshman chemistry sequence based on course performance. The selection is made by the faculty teaching the course. The award is sponsored by the CRC Press and consists of a certificate and a copy of the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics.

The Polymer Organic Award, made by the organic chemistry faculty, recognizes the outstanding student in Organic Chemistry based on performance in organic (and materials science) courses. The award is sponsored by the American Chemical Society's Polymer Education Committee and consists of a certificate of achievement.
