Abstract

An account is given of the time when the International Symposium on Electrical Insulation (ISEI) was inaugurated, the Group on Electrical Insulation was elevated to Society status, Dr. van Roggen was appointed as Editor of the Transactions upon the retirement of E. J. McMahon, the Scientific Achievement award was established in honor of Dr. Dakin, and when, much to the consternation of many, discussions began on the transfer of the Conference on Electrical Insulation and Dielectric Phenomena (CEIDP) from it aegis of the NAS/NRC to a more humble abode, namely that of the Electrical Insulation Society (EIS).
