The CLEO-c Physics Program

The CLEO collaboration at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) is proposing a three-year experiment that specifically emphasizes charm and QCD studies in the energy range $\sqrt{s}=3$--$5 $GeV, utilizes the existing detector and requires minimal modification of CESR to produce a luminosity ${\cal{L}}=(1-5)\times10^{32} {\rm cm^{-2}sec^{-1}}$. Key features of this ``CLEO-c'' physics program are summarized.
