Report on the
The Twenty-Second Summer Symposium in Real Analysis was held at the University of California at Santa Barbara, June 23 -- 27, 1997 and was held to celebrate the contributions Andy Bruckner has made to real analysis. The conference was sponsored by the National Science Foundation (Grant #DMS-9800357), The TRW Corporation, The Faculty Senate of the University of California-Santa Barbara, former recipients of the coveted And, and and Andy's Ph.D. students. Without the generous financial help supplied by these organizations, the scope of the conference would have been significantly narrower. The Editorial Board of the Exchange and the participants of the conference thank them.
The conference was ably organized by Professor Charles Akemann (UC-Santa Barbara), Paul Humke (St. Olaf College) and T.H. Steele (Weber State University) and the Editorial Board of the Exchange wishes to take this opportunity to gratefully acknowledge their leadership in this endeavor.
At the traditional Friday evening banquet various participant's took turns ``roasting'' and warmly honoring Andy Bruckner. At the conclusion of the evening Paul Humke announced that this year's recipient of the ANDY award is appropriately Judy Bruckner. Congratulations, Judy and thank you for sharing Andy with us.
