Attendees at the 2004 Sigma Pi Sigma Quadrennial Congress were treated to a weekend of distinguished speakers, explored how Einstein’s 1905 contributions impact physics, and discussed honor & ethics in science. The Congress was held in conjunction with the APS 4-Corners Section Meeting and regional groups of both the Society of Physics Students and the American Association of Physics Teachers.
