Following our tradition of presenting an academic speaker for our last meeting of the season, we will welcome Michael Spiegel, President of the Texas State University Student Section of SPE to speak to us about section activities at Texas State as well as plastics technical work underway at the University. Mr. Spiegel is originally from Livingston New Jersey, having relocated to Texas about six years ago. He now lives and studies in San Marcos. He is still pursuing a major in chemistry and a minor in mathematics Texas State and is interested in various kinds of green polymers (bio-derived, degradable, etc.). He would like to make that the focus of his career. His own research work is on layered double hydroxides, and he will include a discussion of this in his presentation along with information about other work ongoing at the school. We will also honor Past Presidents and Science Fair Winners. Register Online
