  PASS is understandably a source of great pride in the phys- ical acoustics community. It has been extremely successful; it is internationally recognized, and attracts students from all over the world on a regular basis. The physical acoustics communi- ty will endeavor to make PASS a wonderful learning experience
for future students. I wish to thank George Atkins, Logan Hargrove, and Robert Keolian for help with this article, and Hank Bass (NCPA) and the Army Center of Excellence Picatinny Arsenal for continued financial and administrative support for the Physical Acoustics Summer School.AT

   Thomas J. Matula is currently acting Director of the Center for Industrial and Medical Ultrasound, with the Applied Physics Laboratory at the University of Washington, Seattle, Washington. His research interests involve bubbles in a variety of applications, from sonoluminescence to ultrasound contrast agents. He also is interested in applied technologies that include shock-wave therapy, food processing and semiconductor cleaning. His hobbies are just as varied—from kayaking and sailing to playing electric bass. He has personally benefited greatly from the Physical Acoustics Summer School as a student, a discussion leader, and a lecturer.
