Nalley was the 2006 president of the American Chemical Society.[4][5] Donna Nelson assisted her from the time of her ACS election in 2004 through 2007, by helping her run for office, organizing scientific symposia, traveling to professional meetings with her, and occasionally substituting at meetings in her absence. Nalley has also served for 21 years on the board of directors of Phi Kappa Phi, and was president from 1995 to 1998.[6] In 2005 she was given the Iota Sigma Pi Award in Professional Excellence.[7]
