Dear GALCIT Alumni and Friends of GALCIT:

We are formally marking our 75th Anniversary this year, and we hope you will come join us for the celebration!

What: GALCIT 75 Anniversary Celebration
When: Friday, November 14 - Saturday, November 15, 2003
Where: California Institute of Technology

We have planned two days of events---presentations, tours, panel discussions, social gatherings---capped with a Gala Celebration Dinner at the Athenaeum on Saturday evening featuring Paul Bevilaqua (Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company, Advanced Development Projects) as the guest speaker. But don't miss Friday's festivities, including an informal dinner particularly for alumni to catch up with each other, and an Open House with Lab Tours in the afternoon. There will also be a companion's program on Saturday; there are a limited number of spaces left for the Getty Museum trip.

Scheduled speakers on Saturday's program include:

Brian Cantwell (PhD '76)
Petros Koumoutsakos (PhD '92)
Stelios Kyriakides (PhD '80)

On Saturday afternoon, there will be a panel discussion with Sebastien Candel (PhD '72), Yuan-Cheng (Bert) Fung* (PhD '48), Paul MacCready* (PhD '52), Roddam Narasimha* (PhD '61), Tom Tyson (PhD '67), and Max Williams* (PhD '50).

There will also be a special satellite symposium on Friday the 14th dedicated to Contemporary Research in Solid and Structural Mechanics, hosted by Professor G. Ravichandran, and featuring L. Catherine Brinson (PhD '90), Weinong Chen (PhD '95), Xiaomin Deng (PhD '90), Pradeep Guduru (PhD '01), Gilbert Hegemier (PhD '64), Sridhar Krishnaswamy (PhD '89), Adrian Lew (PhD '03), Ken Liechti (PhD '80), Hongbing Lu (PhD '97), Jean-Francois Molinari (PhD '01), Ramarathnam Narasimhan (PhD '87), K.
