Central Chapter Honors Past Presidents

As part of the 50th Anniversary Meeting, the CCSNM honored the past presidents of the Central Chapter and also the past presidents of the Technologist Section. Displays were created for the meeting to showcase the presidents. In addition, the past presidents were recognized at the 50th Anniversary Reception and presented with a crystal commemorating the 50th Anniversary. Past presidents at the reception are listed below. As each individual accepted their crystal, they told stories and anecdotes that painted an interesting picture of the Chapter’s far and recent past. Our past presidents have been witnesses and catalysts of the history of our field as well as our chapter which, as many will remember, precedes the national Society itself.
