9452453 Whisnant The goal of this project is to strengthen the physical chemistry courses of three colleges by giving students the opportunity to work with laser equipment. The three colleges have formed a consortium to purchase the laser system, which each individual institution could not make available otherwise. This laser system will make it possible to demonstrate contemporary activity in physical chemistry, with the result being improvement in our students' laboratory skills and attitudes toward physical chemistry. The system will be compact, durable, and portable, allowing us to move it around, so that each college will have immediate access to the equipment every third semester. We also will bring students to another college to use the system when it is not located at our individual institutions. The laser system will be versatile -- we have four experiments planned for the project and others are possible. This project will have a significant effect on the chemistry programs of the three colleges, since all of the chemistry majors from the consortium members will use the laser system. The project also will be significant because our consortium, which will pool resources to obtain expensive laboratory equipment, could serve as a model for other institutions in a time of tight budgets and rising equipment costs.

小行星9452453 该项目的目标是通过让学生有机会使用激光设备来加强三所学院的物理化学课程。这三所学院已组成一个财团，购买激光系统，这是每所院校无法提供的。该激光系统将能够展示物理化学的当代活动，其结果是提高我们学生的实验室技能和对物理化学的态度。该系统将是紧凑的，耐用的，便携式的，允许我们移动它，使每个学院将有立即访问的设备每三个学期。我们还将把学生带到另一所大学使用该系统时，它不是位于我们的个别机构。激光系统将是多功能的-我们有四个实验计划的项目和其他可能。该项目将对三所学院的化学课程产生重大影响，因为联盟成员的所有化学专业都将使用激光系统。该项目也将是重要的，因为我们的财团将集中资源获得昂贵的实验室设备，可以作为其他机构在预算紧张和设备成本上升的时候的典范。
