The NY Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists is the largest chapter, and while most members are educated as scientists, anyone can become a member as an affiliated or student member.  The NYSCC manages a job bank and newsletter, and sponsors several undergraduate and graduate scholarships.  In 2014 the chairman of the NYSCC Scholarship Committee attended an event and was impressed with the presentation of a Ramapo College student.  He was establishing scholarships at several schools and wanted to include Ramapo.  The award is for freshmen who will be majoring in biology or chemistry, with students interested in cosmetics and personal care preferred.
