The First National Meeting

The first national meeting of SREPCIM was convened on April 28, 1978.  All 178 attendees were granted membership and voting rights and an initial constitution was drafted that provided for annual meetings that would serve as a forum for research and education. Officers were elected by ballot in July 1978 and a newsletter for the Society was established.
