In recent tests, the coffee offered to students free of charge in McCartney Library contains approximately 73 % coffee, with the composition of the other 27% of the liquid belonging to various substances. In CHM 232, Quantitative Analytical Chemistry’s latest lab, students were required to analyze the chemical makeup of various common liquids. One student, wishing to remain anonymous, analyzed the brake down of chemicals and other substances and posted the pie chart shown in the lab report.
While few of these chemicals are physically harmful, students have shown concern over the alcohol content of both Egg Nog and Sake. Plans have been made to remove both alcoholic beverages as soon as possible, “Yeah, I’ll get right on that,” commented Kyle Brenneman, Reference-Instruction Librarian, “I have a lot of books to put back first, but, yeah, I’ll definitely work on that.” The chemistry department is currently undergoing experiments to test the shower water in Pearce basement as well as the Brigadoon’s hazelnut coffee and Alexander Hall’s supply of Lemon-Lime Vitamin Water.
