A symposium honoring Jonathan Dorfan's distinguished career at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and his leadership in the broader scientific community is scheduled for July 24, 2008. Dorfan served as SLAC Director for nearly eight years, stepping down in December 2007.
The symposium, which will begin in SLAC's Panofsky Auditorium, will include talks by longtime friends and coworkers, as well as two Nobel Prize winners. In the afternoon, the event will move to the SLAC green, where all attendees are invited to enjoy ice cream, cake, and merriment.
The day-long event will conclude with a reception and dinner at the Stanford Faculty Club, where President John Hennessy will speak. There is no cost to attend the symposium, but there will be a $60 dinner fee.
