• The chemistry department at Illinois Wesleyan University is revising its freshman and sophomore sequence as outlined earlier in this Journal. Key features of this innovation are the integration of organic and inorganic chemical concepts throughout the first two years of the curriculum, the incorporation of modern instrumentation into lecture and laboratory beginning the first semester, and the matching of topic development to student ability throughout the two-year sequence.
