The Iron Shield Society, formerly the Iron Cross Society, is an exclusive undergraduate honors society at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.[1]

The student organization was historically a secret society but the existence of the organization is now public and its members are publicly identified on their web site.[2] Society inductees who have graduated are also honored by having their names listed at the Memorial Union.[1]

History

The Iron Shield Society was founded in 1902.[3] The most visible accomplishment of Iron Shield is the founding of the Memorial Union. In 1907, the UW–Madison president asked Iron Shield members to help convert the failing Madison YMCA into a more meaningful student institution.[3]

Initially only open to men in their senior year of college, The Iron Shield later allowed both juniors and women to join.[2]

In 2011, the Iron Shield published an endorsement of the Wisconsin Idea in the Badger Herald. The open letter exhorted students to not just plug themselves into existing community organizations, but to also think critically about which of their community's needs are not currently being met and how the skills learned in college could help students address those needs.[4]

In 2020, the organization made the decision to change its name from the Iron Cross Society to the Iron Shield Society to remove potential confusion of association with the Nazi Iron Cross or Neo-Nazi organizations using the "Iron Cross" name.[5]

Selection process

Unlike other UW–Madison honor societies, faculty, academic staff, student leaders, and student organizations all make nominations to the Iron Shield Society. The exact selection process is not known,[2] but students' extracurricular, community accomplishments, and (to a lesser extent) GPA is taken into consideration.[6] Nominations can be made via online form.[6]

Cooley–Tukey FFT algorithm

Fast Fourier Transform algorithm The Cooley–Tukey algorithm, named after J. W. Cooley and John Tukey, is the most common fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. It re-expresses the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of an arbitrary composite size N = N 1 N 2 {\displaystyle N=N_{1}N_{2}} in terms of N1 smaller DFTs of sizes N2, recursively, to reduce the computation time to O(N log N) for highly composite N (smooth numbers). Because of the algorithm's importance, specific variants and implementat…
