By 1967, two years after Slater left, the MIT Physics Department "had a very, very small commitment to condensed matter physics" because it was so "heavily into high energy physics." [84] But in the same year, the CMSE staff included 55 professors and 179 graduate students. [83] The Center continues to flourish in the 21st century. [4]
