Now hiring faculty
. . . To encourage the growth of any science, the best thing we can do is to meet together in its interest, to discuss its problems, to criticize each other's work and, best of all, to provide means by which the better portion of it may be made known to the world. . . .

Henry A. Rowland, the first president of the American Physical Society
