University of Rochester Science Fiction Society

A club at the University of Rochester in Rochester, NY. There appear to have been several instantiations:

A club existed around 1970 which published Uranian. John Kessel and Steve Carper were members.

It was re-founded around 1978 and died in 1983 the year after key club members graduated. It ran URCON from 1979 to 1982 and was one of two sponsors of Rochester Fantasy Fair 2 in 1981.

It had a brief revival in 1990–91 and ran Imagine '90 as well as the New York State premiere of Mike Jittlov's full-length film, The Wizard of Speed and Time.
