Lise Meitner went on to be forgotten? In my city, a big street bears her name, including the tram station there. Fittingly, it's the tram to the University that stops there. Essentially, her name is hammered into all students' heads here.

Right? In germany there is a lot named after her. e.g. The Institute for Nuclear Research in Berlin is the “Hahn-Meitner-Institut” (after her and Otto Hahn). There are severals Schools and streets named after her all over the country.
