Polymer Chemistry
David Whisnant · Wofford College
Polymers are giant molecules (also called macromolecules) that are essential to our existence. They are important chemicals in our bodies (proteins, DNA), in plants (starch, cellulose), and in our everyday lives (fibers, plastics). Polymers are made by transforming small molecules (monomers) into molecules with very large molecular weights. Although the chemical properties of polymers are similar to those of analogous small molecules, their physical properties are quite different.

The Bright Continent - African Art History
Kathy Curnow · Cleveland State University
We come to art from various points. Some are out for a stroll and stumble upon objects that grab their attention. Others are equipped with guidebooks, methodically approaching and regularly revisiting both actual and virtual works. Still other viewers revel in the familiar, remaining attentive to details that cement life-long friendships. African art is no different. For some, it may initially hold few clues that help un-pack its meaning.
