As a means of overcoming a lack of adequate instructional facilities in the rapidly growing field of fluid mechanics, a group of educators has recently established an organization to produce a series of approximately 25 college‐level films over a three‐year period. The newly formed National Committee for Fluid Mechanics Films will use the organizational and technical facilities of Educational Services Inc., the nonprofit, operational arm of the Physical Science Study Committee, and will be supported in its first‐year activities by a $324 000 grant from the National Science Foundation. One of the features of the program will be the creation of series of reference texts, called “films in print”, which will describe the highly compressed content of each film.
