Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter activities this year:

At our Pi Mu Epsilon Induction Ceremony and Abramson Colloquium Dr. William Goldbloom Bloch, a mathematician at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, gave a fascinating talk: “A Mathematician Transgresses Into Literary Theory: Navigating the Labyrinths in Jorge Luis Borges’ story The Library of Babel.”

Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2009 PME national meeting at MathFest in Portland, Oregon?

Do you have any news about current students or recent graduates, for example, scholarships or other awards, acceptances to graduate school, paper presentations at conferences?
