Scientific Association
Scientific Association of the Johns Hopkins University records, 1877 October - 1919 October.
The records of the Scientific Association of the Johns Hopkins University comprise the minutes of the Society from its inception in October 1877, to October 1919, bound in one volume. Included with the minutes are membership lists, a list of the presidents of the Society, the rules of the Society (both the original 1877 and the revised 1919 versions), and announcements of meeting dates and times. The minutes themselves, which are usually quite short, report paper topics and speakers, the election of officers, and occasionally paper abstracts, attendance lists, or mentions of other Society business.
The Scientific Association of the Johns Hopkins University was originally organized by Professor Ira Remsen on October 24, 1877 "for the purpose of keeping those connected with one of the departments (then mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology) informed as to the work being done in kindred subjects."
