April Meeting in February?

The APS April Meeting 2010 will be held in February next year. It's not a typo. By holding the meeting in February, APS is able to join the Winter Meeting of the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT). 

In addition, meeting in February allows us to have a special plenary session on Saturday, February 13, with the National Society of Black Physicists (NSBP) and the National Society of Hispanic Physicists (NSHP), as well as with AAPT.

Recognizing Laser's 50^th Anniversary

2010 marks the the 50^th anniversary of the development of the first working laser (1960). LaserFest, a yearlong celebration of laser's anniversary, will be marked by international events, including special symposia at the April Meeting.

There will also be a public lecture on one of the evenings during the meeting.
