Greetings Everyone,

 

I am pleased to announce that Curriculum Council, Faculty Senate and the Administration of WV Wesleyan College have approved the first BS-CHO program.  This program is a Chemical Hygiene Officer Bachelor of Science Major specifically designed to educate students in the profession of the Chemical Hygiene Officer.  Coursework includes standard BS-Chemistry courses plus Experiential Learning (internship) courses, Survey of IH/HAZWOP, Toxicology, Environmental Law & Politics and in the final semester senior year CHO: Preparation for the Profession.

 

A few “thank-you’s” are in order, for without the advice and consultations from the following, I don’t think I could have pulled this together:

 

Russ Phifer (NRCC, WCEnvironmental)–  fundamental in helping me organize thoughts & ideas, pointing me towards resources and working out the curriculum

Barbara Foster (WVU-Director Lab Safety) – for her staunch support, letting me pick her brain, bounce ideas off her and work out course specifics

Wayne Appleton (DuPont, Acacia) – for his 25 years of experience as a HazMat Tech & Emergency Responder and sharing his considerable knowledge

Jim Kaufman & LSI – for inspiring me 15  years ago in this field

Neal Langerman (ACSafety) – for pointing me in the direction of excellent text books

 

And of course… DCHAS-List – believe me when I say I have learned quite a bit from this list!

 

If you would like more information, please contact Mel Charlton-Smith:
