"In spite of its many successful theories, chemistry remains an experimental science. As our world has grown increasingly digital, many initiatives have emerged that pursue the hope that one might learn chemistry by working with software and observing reactions on a computer screen rather than actually carrying them out in a laboratory. While we are proponents of innovation and follow these efforts closely, even dabbling in them ourselves, we remain convinced that chemistry is, at its core, a hands-on laboratory science, in the vast majority of cases best learned by carrying out first-hand experiments with real chemicals. Your instructors must agree, because teaching "wet" laboratory sections is a difficult and expensive undertaking, not the path of least resistance. Please keep in mind that a lot of resources are going into giving you the opportunity to learn chemistry in this way; we urge you to make the most of it!"--
