This special issue of The Journal initiates the publication of the papers presented on the Electronics Division program at the 60th Annual Meeting. Interest in the formation of an Electronics Division was first expressed by Society members in 1956. The following year, an Electronic Ceramics Advisory Committee was appointed to determine how The Society could best serve the ceramic and electronic industries in the gathering and dissemination of information in that field. Members of that committee were: Edward C. Henry, General Electric Co., chairman; Seymour Blum, Raytheon Mfg. Co.; and Edward J. Smoke, Rutgers. After an intensive study of the need for a new division, the committee made its recommendations to the Committee on Classes and Divisions which presented the report for the final action of the Board of Trustees. The Electronics Division now has over 300 members.
