Sigma Pi Sigma Quadrennial Congress Set for November 6-8, 2008

You are invited to participate in the 2008 Sigma Pi Sigma Quadrennial Congress! This meeting is hosted by Sigma Pi Sigma, the physics honor society, but is open to all members of the science community. It will be held at Fermilab, in Batavia, IL, November 6-8, 2008. We believe that this is the only national physics meeting specifically designed to bring undergraduates, practicing physicists and physics alumni together to address common concerns for the discipline and for society. The theme of the 2008 Congress is Scientific Citizenship: Connecting Physics and Society. We will explore the greater role of the physicist in our society through round-table discussions, distinguished speakers, and historical perspectives.
