Epilog

Those who come to the Physics Center refer to their campus as a ``circle of serenity.'' Its special environment is an essential element in the ability of the participants to think, to create and to communicate freely with their colleagues. This ``circle of serenity'' extends far beyond the Center's small campus. Its effects are felt throughout the scientific community, enhancing not only the lives of the physicists who have worked there, but through them, enhancing our understanding of the world around us.

And while the Aspen Center for Physics will continue to fulfillits goals by addressing contemporary issues, its simple concept will remain unchanged: fine minds in an atmosphere of creative freedom.
