For me, this decision answered questions of both need and want—specifically, do I need two cars in the city, and do I really want the hassle of owning two cars while living downtown? In academe, issues such as sustainability have a tendency to unite the needs and wants, bringing together those who pursue research for the benefit of society and those who explore the same topics for the benefit of science.

Among its recommendations, the “Report of the Subpanel on the Long- Range Future of U.S. High-Energy Physics” calls for creating a system for prioritizing particle physics projects and, eventually, for building a new international particle accelerator “somewhere in the world”— preferably somewhere nearby. The new plan is the product of a 22-member HEPAP Subpanel, charged by the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation with the daunting task of consulting with the U.S. particle physics community to produce a plan for the future of a field that, in recent years, has been hard pressed to maintain its leading edge. Straitened federal funding for U.S. particle physics, and indeed for all of the physical sciences, has left cash-strapped physicists struggling to maintain momentum in a science where Americans have traditionally led the field. The Subpanel’s report represents, if not a consensus on the best way forward, at least as close to consensus as they are likely to get in a community where strongly held opinions are as divergent as particles in a high-energy collision.

    ILLINOIS TECH. DIFFERENT. For nearly 125 years, Illinois Tech students have been looking at the world through a different lens— inventing new products, testing new solutions for tough problems, pushing the envelope, and using new technologies to do things better, smarter, and faster. Our students want a different type of education. They want opportunities to make a real impact— upon our economy, their neighborhoods, and the environment. Illinois Tech will give you what you need to stand out. Take a stand. Stand up. Be counted. So come to Illinois Tech if you want to inspire, create, work hard, and make a difference. S. R. Crown Hall Be prepared to change the world while you are here and after you graduate. Illinois Institute of Technology—where different is good. WE’RE PROUD OF OUR CAMPUS People from around the world come to Illinois Tech’s Main Campus to look at the buildings designed by legendary architect and faculty member Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. It’s easy to see why: Forbes magazine called Main Campus one of “America’s most beautiful college campuses.” More-recent additions to campus include Rem Koolhaas’s McCormick Tribune Campus Center and the State Street Village student residence, designed by Helmut Jahn, considered one of the “10 most influential living American architects” (American Institute of Architects). Once you’ve visited Illinois Institute of Technology, you’ll agree that our campus has a style all its own.

    Fall 2013 IIT’s Global Reach Up Close, Personal, and Worldwide STYX’S JAMEs “J. Y.” YOUNG PARTH KAPADIA DANIEL MAGASANIK From Rockets to Rockin’ Blazing the Flower Trail Winds of Change from the President “I live my life in widening circles that reach out across the world.” —Rainer Maria Rilke I especially look forward to two times of the year on the academic calendar. One is Commencement. I like to remind people that graduation is associated with “commencement” for a good reason. It is the beginning of “life after IIT” and, if we have done our jobs well, our students start traveling down a road carrying with them the tools they need to be global citizens, contributors to society, and innovative thinkers. The second time is the beginning of fall semester. I get particular pleasure in welcoming back our returning students and getting the chance to know those who are arriving on campus for the first time. This fall, enrollment and retention reached new heights. Retention, defined as the percentage of first- year students who return for their second year, now stands at 93 percent—the fourth year in a row we have exceeded 90 percent. Our first-year, full-time undergraduate enrollment is the highest since 1981, and our total enrollment (graduate plus undergraduate) is the highest since 1968. There is a renewed energy and spirit on campus, in part from having more students, but also because of the young men and women who have come to IIT from 94 countries. They bring with them new perspectives—and their presence adds to the cultural richness for which our university is known.
