Quaternion Society
The Quaternion Society was a scientific society, self-described as an "International Association for Promoting the Study of Quaternions and Allied Systems of Mathematics". At its peak it consisted of about 60 mathematicians spread throughout the academic world that were experimenting with quaternions and other hypercomplex number systems. The group's guiding light was Alexander Macfarlane who served as its secretary initially, and became president in 1909. The association published a ''Bibliography'' in 1904 and a ''Bulletin'' (annual report) from 1900 to 1913. The ''Bulletin'' became a review journal for topics in vector analysis and abstract algebra such as the theory of equipollence. The mathematical work reviewed pertained largely to matrices and linear algebra as the methods were in rapid development at the time. Genesis In 1895, Professor P. Molenbroek of The Hague, Holland, and Shinkichi Kimura studying at Yale put out a call for scholars to form the society in widely circu ...

Spectra (mathematical Association)
Spectra is a professional association of LGBTQIA+ mathematicians. It arose from a need for recognition and community for mathematicians who belong to gender and sexual minorities. History Spectra has its roots in meetups arranged at the Joint Mathematics Meetings (JMM) and a mailing list organized by Ron Buckmire. It arose in reaction to the JMM being scheduled to occur in Denver in 1995 when the state of Colorado voters approved the anti-gay 1992 Colorado Amendment 2. In December 1992 David Pengelley wrote letters to members of the AMS and MAA urging them to move the meeting out of Colorado, feeling that it would be offensive to the many homosexual participants to attend a meeting in an openly hostile and potentially dangerous place. Moreover, he thought that such a decision could help ensure that similar political decisions do not become a national trend. In the same month, James Humphreys also sent a letter with a similar message. Then, in the meeting in San Antonio of Janua ...
