In this paper we introduce the notion of contact angle for an immersed
surface in three dimensional sphere. We deduce formulas for the Laplacian and
for the Gaussian curvature, and we classify minimal surfaces in $S^3$ with
constant contact angle. Also, we give an example of a minimal surface in $S^3$
with non constant contact angle.
