Hash Hashemian: Visionary leadership
As Dr. Hashem M. “Hash” Hashemian prepares to step into his term as President of the American Nuclear Society, he is clear that he wants to make the most of this unique moment.
A groundswell in public approval of nuclear is finding a home in growing governmental support that is backed by a tailwind of technological innovation. “Now is a good time to be in nuclear,” Hashemian said, as he explained the criticality of this moment and what he hoped to accomplish as president.

Regional enclaves of industry and associations of neighboring universities have devised formalized programs for providing internship experiences for graduate students and residencies for post-doctoral fellows. As an example of the former, seven years' activity of the Summer Engineering Practice School at Argonne National Laboratory is reviewed. Subsequent performance of former students has shown clear evidence of maturation resulting from early contact with working scientists. By-products have been significant industrial contributions by the students, and useful exchanges between industrial and academic scientists associated with the students.
