Origins of research and teaching at selected physics departments [sound recording], 2010 February 15.
Audio recording of session Q5 of the April 2010 annual meeting of the American Physical Society, held in Washington, DC in February 2010. This session was co-sponsored by the American Physical Society (APS) Forum on the History of Physics (FHP)and Forum on Education (FEd) and the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT). The session was chaired by James Stith of the American Institute of Physics (AIP). Talks (and speakers) include: "250 Years of Physics at the College of William and Mary: 1760-2010" (Hans von Baeyer); "80 Years of Physics at Fisk University" (Warren Collins); and "Research and Education in Physics and Astronomy at Haverford College" (Jerry Gollub). Topics discussed include the physics programs at the College of William and Mary, Fisk University and Haverford College.
This professional society of educators, industrial and government research workers, and students of physics and related fields, was established in 1899 to promote the advancement and diffusion of the knowledge of physics. It was a founding Member Society of the American Institute of Physics. The American Physical Society (APS) meetings are a forum for scientists to gather and share research results on a wide range of physics and physics-related topics.
