Abstract
During the past 100 years, electricity has evolved from a parlor trick to the tremendous and vital role that it plays in American life today. Paralleling the advances in engineering has been the rise of the engineering societies, with the first of these, the American Society of Civil Engineers, being founded in 1852. The AIEE was organized 32 years later.
