Taylor Bias receives American Chemical Society scholarship

Ball State University chemistry student and 2022 Indiana Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (IN LSAMP) research scholar Taylor Bias was awarded a competitive scholarship through the American Chemical Society Scholars Program.

“The ACS Scholars Program awards renewable scholarships to undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups in the chemical sciences, majoring in chemistry-related disciplines, and intending to pursue chemistry-related careers.”
(American Chemical Society, n.d., para. 1)

Taylor is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at Ball State and is a member of the honors college. As a summer 2022 IN LSAMP research scholar, Taylor works alongside faculty mentor Dr. Mary Konkle, Associate Professor of Chemistry & BSU LSAMP Co-Director. After earning a bachelor degree in 2025, Taylor plans to attend graduate school in biochemistry and work in drug discovery.

Assessment Institute in Indianapolis

The Assessment Institute in Indianapolis is the nation's oldest and largest event focused exclusively on outcomes assessment in higher education. We anticipate that some 1000 educators from virtually every state and several other countries will take part in the 2018 Institute.

The Assessment Institute in Indianapolis is designed to provide opportunities for (1) individuals and campus teams new to outcomes assessment to acquire fundamental knowledge about the field, (2) individuals who have worked as leaders in outcomes assessment to share and extend their knowledge and skills, and (3) those interested in outcomes assessment at any level to establish networks that serve as sources of support and expertise beyond the dates of the Institute.
