N1 - Funding Information:
Large student participation is a tradition of NAMRC. Many organizations help to make this happen. For years, the NSF Advanced Manufacturing program supported student travel and registration fee. Host universities provide lower registration fee for students, often at a slight loss in the per person base financially in the conference budget. NAMRC has been and will be student friendly.

N2 - In 1973, a group of eminent manufacturing engineering researchers, known today as the Founders, organized the first North American Metalworking Research Conference (NAMRC). Seven years later, the name was changed to the North American Manufacturing Research Conference. In 1982, the institution known today as the North American Manufacturing Research Institution (NAMRI), with a formal board, Scientific Committee, and membership formally became part of SME. As we commemorate 50 years of its continuing success, we use this opportunity to recall and summarize our past: the achievements, milestones reached, and evolving themes. It is also a time to reflect on the challenges that we face today and on how we can better contribute and innovate into the future in terms of advanced manufacturing.
