Abstract
On the occasion of the presentation of the Division of Polymer Chemistry Award to Dr. Maurice L. Huggins on November 24, 1980, a number of formal and informal events, which accompanied the award address published in this volume, occurred which added materially to the presentation and we hope tended to enhance the tradition of the award. These events included the presentation ceremonies, the introduction of the awardee, and a panel discussion involving questions and reminiscing about the awardee’s career. A special flavor to the ceremony was derived by the presentation of a scroll signed by many of his polymer friends in Japan and an additional gift of a 200-year old Japanese wooden print to Dr. Huggins by the Society of Polymer Science, Japan.
