From April 22–25, 1999, the Organization of American Historians held its ninety-second annual meeting in Toronto, Canada. The theme was “State and Society in North America: Processes of Social Power and Social Change.” More than seven hundred scholars were on the program, an impressive showing; and for Canadian historians, whose community is comparatively small, a source of envy. The participants were, of course, overwhelmingly American and US specialists, but many Canadian colleagues presented papers or attended, as did other international scholars, including Americanists based overseas. While most sessions were held at a downtown hotel, organizers made use of local cultural venues and historic sites. They scheduled a session on the Underground Railroad, for instance, at St. Lawrence Hall, site of the first meeting of the Colored Free Men in Canada and an antislavery lecture by Frederick Douglas.

THE UNIVERSITY AND OUR FUTURE National Advisory Council Twentieth Anniversary David P. Gardner, President Salt Lake City, Utah University of California October 28, 1988 I am both delighted and honored by your invitation to share this very special occasion with you. Anniversaries invite reflection not just about the past but about the future; and I would like to talk briefly about both. Twenty years ago, American universities were just completing a decade of unprecedented growth, a decade marked by high levels of national prosperity. But in the eyes of much of the American public, universities were the object of mingled resentment and alarm. Campuses across the nation were in turmoil; civil rights protests, Vietnam, and a host of other issues caused many campuses to erupt in conflict, leaving in their wake a shattered and demoralized academic community at odds with the very people whose support the universities depended upon for their fiscal, political, and social stability. Students were moving towards the left, while the community was moving toward the right. All of which was both a cause

1993 is an auspicious year for the History of Economics Society. Almost exactly twenty years and one month ago the first gathering of historians of economic thought took place in Chicago. It was not exactly the first meeting of the Society since it was officially formed only in 1974 and the first official meeting took place that year in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. However, the 1973 meeting demonstrated that there was sufficient interest in the subject to form a society. Hence, this is both the twentieth annual meeting of the History of Economics Society and the twentieth anniversary of its inception.

It is an honor and a challenge to be asked to produce a brief history of the last decade of the Society for California Archaeology (SCA). I was the second of the last ten presidents of the society, and found myself, along with Steve Horne (the first of the last decade) at the helm during two “seas of change” that brewed up during our tenures. The first of these was the dramatic reorganization of the society that began in 2007 and continued throughout the next two years. The second was the impact of the Great Recession on the SCA and on the practice of archaeology in California. With these two forces of change given their due as the “new realities,” I conclude the essay by examining specific topics of change in the SCA and in California archaeology over the past decade. Throughout, I lean heavily on columns, meeting minutes, and articles from the 36 issues of the Society for California Archaeology Newsletter produced between January 2007 and June 2016.

Our association was conceived by a small group of physicians interested in tuberculosis and health spas 125 years ago last month in New York City. They organized the “American Climatological Association,” to study the effect of climate on disease and planned the first meeting to take place in Washington, D.C. on May 3, 1884. So next year, 2009, will be the 125th Anniversary of our first Annual Meeting.
Seventy-five years ago the council questioned the relevance of Climatology to Clinical Medicine, yet in renaming our Association decided, for historic and sentimental reasons, to retain the “Climatologic” designation, and in 1933 we became the “American Clinical and Climatological Association.” Now, of course, we seem to be ahead of our time in having recognized that Global Climate has a monumental effect on Human Health.
So we are fortunate that Dr. Donald Lindberg submitted to me for consideration for this meeting a short essay on the topic. This essay evolved into my charging him to organize the first Symposium for our Association on Global Climate and Health which he entitled The Second 125 Years of the ACCA: Shall We Return to Our Roots?
Ladies and gentlemen I give you Dr. Donald Lindberg, a pioneering physician-scientist in applying computer technology to health care, and Director since 1984 of the National Library of Medicine, the world's largest biomedical library. Joining him for the symposium are Guillaume Constantin de Magny of the University of Maryland, George Luber of the Centers for Disease Control, and Joshua P. Rosenthal of the National Institutes of Health.

Last September, American and Indian scientists met in New Delhi, India, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Indo-U.S. Vaccine Action Program (VAP). The meeting, which featured updates on VAP research projects and clinical trials, also was cause for celebration and self-congratulation for having seen the program through a difficult birth and a scientific adolescence troubled by financial uncertainties, changing research priorities, conflicting bureaucracies, and physical distance. Now at 25 years, many of the people who created the VAP, trained under it, and sustained it with collaborative funds, research, and publications have laid out plans and projects that should carry the program through another quarter century.

Where once the annual meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research, the American Society for Clinical Investigation, and the Association of American Physicians could unite the whole of clinical investigation, now stand many organizations and meetings catering to specialized fields, and the cohering effect of the Atlantic City meetings has not since been duplicated.
