Project IMPRESS staff: David Luchini, Bruce Backa, Donna Nadeau, and an unknown, in Silsby Hall

In July, Project IMPRESS (Interdisciplinary Machine Processing for Research and Education in the Social Sciences) begins with a conference for "eminent social scientists and Dartmouth faculty members." IMPRESS, sponsored under a grant from the Carnegie Foundation, created "laboratory conditions in which the social scientist (could) build endless hypotheses, and compare them as do his colleagues in the physical sciences," according to Edmund D. Meyers, assistant director of the project.
