American Academy of Arts and Sciences

The American Academy of Arts and Sciences (AAAS) was founded during the American Revolution by individuals who contributed prominently to the philosophical foundations of the new nation and to the establishment of its government and institutions. Maintaining its initial concern with the development of knowledge as a means of promoting the public interest and social progress, the Academy has both grown and evolved since its founding. Today, it is a learned society with a dual function -- to honor achievement in science, scholarship, the arts, and public affairs, and to conduct a varied program of projects and studies that reflects the interests of its members and is responsive to the needs and problems of society. The Academy's membership, which is elected, represents distinction and achievement in the entire range of the intellectual disciplines and professions. Its 4,000 Fellows and 600 Foreign Honorary Members are divided into five classes -- the mathematical and physical sciences; the biological sciences; the social sciences; humanities and arts; and public affairs, business, and administration. The following H&S faculty members -- both current and emeritus -- have been honored for their achievements through election to AAAS:
