Abstract

This month’s <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">IEEE Microwave Magazine</i> is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society (MTT-S), and I wanted to use my article to focus on the topic of legacy. In 1952, the Professional Technical Group on Microwave Theory and Techniques was formed, and since that time, the MTT-S has grown to more than 10,500 members who make up more than 250 Chapters. Thanks to the goals set by and the encouragement of the Member and Geographic Activities Committee, the number of Student Branch Chapters has increased beyond 100. There are 153 MTT-S Chapters within the 10 Regions of IEEE, where 36 are independent Chapters and 117 are joint Chapters with other Societies. This month, each chair of the 16 standing committees within the MTT-S will be sharing his/her most recent efforts at supporting the members and longevity of the Society. A large part of what makes organizations successful is the part where we give back or share our knowledge with others. One of the definitions I found for “legacy” is something handed down from an ancestor or a predecessor or from the past; <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">synonym</i> : heritage.
