SNAME To Hold 1990 Annual Meeting In San Francisco Edward J. Campbell, presi- dent of the Society of Naval Archi- tects and Marine Engineers (SNAME), has announced the so- ciety will hold its 98th Annual Meeting in San Francisco, Calif, in 1990. This marks the first time that the meeting would be held outside of New York City. The 98th Annual Meeting will be held at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco in the Embarcadero Cen- ter, along with the Ninth Interna- tional Maritime Exposition, from October 31 to November 3, 1990. The departure from tradition was based, in part, on a survey of the society's membership. Many of the respondents expressed the opinion that the Annual Meeting should oc- casionally be located somewhere other than New York City. San Francisco was the most popular choice for those that responded.
