EMS Presidents
The Edinburgh Mathematical Society was founded in 1883. The first president was elected at the first meeting of the Society which took place at 8 p.m. on Friday 2 February 1883 in the Mathematics Classroom of Edinburgh University. The first president served for less than a year, with the second president elected to serve for academic year 1883-84. This is why there were two presidents elected in 1883.
