The original five founders of the ASA were John Van Haitsma (biologist from
Calvin), Peter Stoner (mathematician from Pasadena), Irving Cowperthwaite
(industrial chemist from Boston), Russell Sturgis (chemist at Ursinus), and
F. Alton Everest (EE from Oregon State). Irwin Moon (with Moody Bible
Institute) was the instigator of the original meeting in which the ASA was
envisioned.
