The
Adhesion Society was organized out of the recognized need for
a multidisciplinary forum to discuss adhesion issues. In
February 1978, the “Call for Papers” was issued announcing
that the inaugural meeting of The Adhesion Society would be on
March 20-21, 1978, at the University of Akron. There were
eight technical presentations made to approximately 50
attendees. Those present ratified the organizational plans
for the new Society and set its development in motion. The
rest, as they say, is history……….
The 30th
Annual Meeting of the Society was a milestone in our
organization. A new “History of the Adhesion Society,
1977-2007”, compiled by Guy Davis, was available.
Three of our longstanding members, Jim Wightman, Guy Davis and
Lou Sharpe, reminisced about past meetings, interesting events
and how much the Annual Meetings have changed in both size and
number, and subjects of organized sessions offered.
