	American Mathematical Society
		Fiske continued to serve the Society as Secretary until 1895, and as editor-in-chief of the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society from until 1897.
		He was vice-president of the Society from 1898 to 1901, an editor of the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society from 1899 to 1905, and President of the Society from 1903 to 1904.
		Although Bôcher's decision saved the American Mathematical Society from breaking apart, the Society still retained the idea of sections (and their meetings being of less standing) until 1929 when sectional meetings were recognised for the first time as regular meetings of the Society.

	Online Ethics Center: AMS Ethical Guidelines (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The correct attribution of mathematical results is essential, both as it encourages creativity, by benefiting the creator whose career may depend on the recognition of the work, and as it informs the community of when, where, and sometimes how original ideas have entered into the chain of mathematical thought.
		When mathematical work may affect the public health, safety or general welfare, it is the responsibility of mathematicians to disclose the implications of their work to their employers and to the public, if necessary.
		All mathematical publishers, particularly those who draw without charge on the resources of the mathematical community through the use of unpaid editors and referees, must recognize that they have made a compact with the community to disseminate information, and that compact must be weighed in their business decisions.

	History of the AMS
		It appears that the idea for a mathematical society in the United States came from a visit T S Fiske made to England where he visited Cambridge.
		The Society was set up and had only 11 members in its first year with J H Van Amringe as President.
		The decision to publish the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society was taken by Fiske, Eliakim Moore, McClintock, Bôcher, Osgood and Pierpont (the first Colloquium lecturer).

	Astronomical Societies
		The Cotswold Astronomical Society is a society for amateur astronomers in the Cotswold's of England, centered on Cheltenham and Gloucester.
		The Society was incorporated within the province of Ontario in 1890, received its Royal Charter from King Edward VII in 1903, and was federally incorporated in 1968.
		The Society's aims are "the encouragement and promotion of astronomy and geophysics." The main functions are to publish the results of astronomical and geophysical research, to maintain as complete a library as possible in these subjects and to hold meetings, in London and elsewhere, at which astronomical and geophysical matters can be discussed.

	Stanislaw M. Ulam Papers, American Philosophical Society
		Perhaps his greatest achievement was the development of the Monte Carlo method for solving complex mathematical problems by electronic random sampling, but he made equally noteworthy contributions in hydrodynamics (three-dimensional fluid flow), the development of nuclear propulsion for space flight (Project Orion), and in fields as disparate as physics, biology, and astronomy.
		Ulam's memberships in professional and learned societies included the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Philosophical Society, the American Physical Society, the American Mathematical Society, the Mathematical Association of America, the Polish Mathematical Society, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
		In recognition of his mathematical and scientific achievements, Ulam was awarded honorary degrees by the University of New Mexico (1965), the University of Pittsburgh (1978), and the University of Wisconsin (1978).

	Mathematical Programming Society Prizes
		The prize is for outstanding papers in the area of discrete mathematics and is sponsored jointly by the Mathematical Programming Society and the American Mathematical Society.
		The first awards of the Prize were made at the Tenth International Symposium on Mathematical Programming in 1979: to Richard M. Appel and Wolfgang Haken (proof of the four color theorem); to Richard M. Karp (computational complexity of combinatorial problems); and to Paul D. Seymour (matroids and the max-flow min-cut property).
		Originally, the prizes were paid out of a memorial fund administered by the American Mathematical Society that was established by friends of the late Delbert Ray Fulkerson to encourage mathematical excellence in the fields of research exemplified by his work.
