Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present at the PME National Meeting this year? At least one speaker, and hopefully two more.

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

If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results.
We received a prize grant, which was used to help fund student book prizes we award outstanding senior math majors. Eight students received awards, and each was given a list of several books from which to choose, e.g. Euler's Gems by Dave Richeson.
