The 1956 annual meeting of the Minnesota Academy of Science took place at Augsburg College on May 4-5, 1956. This program shows 60+ scientific talks and demonstrations, ranging from a preliminary survey of Minnesota's taconite industry to "The Effects of Aerial Spraying on the Fauna of Areas Treated." This annual meeting was held "with concurrent sessions of National Association of Biology Teachers," as well as a "Joint Meeting of Mathematical Section and the Minnesota Section of the Mathematical Association of America." Full-text of the published papers is available in the digitized Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science.
The 1952 annual meeting of the Minnesota Academy of Science took place at State Teachers College in St. Cloud on May 2-3, 1952. This program shows 30+ scientific talks, ranging from Minnesota fisheries to ore prospecting to the flora of the Cedar Creek Forest. There was a special session for high school science teachers, with a discussion on "Organizing and Sponsoring a Chapter of the Junior Academy of Science." Full-text of the published papers is available in the digitized Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science.
This hand-written list of Minnesota Academy of Science presidents 1932-1956 includes such prominent Minnesotans as the explorer/geologist and Carleton College president Laurence M. Gould, Bell Museum of Natural History director Walter J. Breckenridge, and Hiram E. Essex, one of several from the Mayo Clinic/Mayo Foundation. An up-to-date list may be viewed at the Academy's website, including links to further information for selected individuals.
