Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter mathematical activities this year: |
1. We had our TROY MathFest undergraduate math conference. Several members presented their work here and participated in our Calculus Competition. 2. We had a Sudoku and KenKen competition. |
Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2013 PME national meeting at MathFest in Hartford, Connecticut? |
No |
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. |
2 members accepted to graduate school with assistantships. 1 member participated in an REU. 2 members won Dean’s research award (1st and 3rd place). 5 members presented papers at conferences. 1 member awarded internship with government. |
If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results. |
We had an NSF-MAA supported (RUMC grant) regional undergraduate mathematics conference. We had about 60 participants, with about 12 student talks, calculus competition, and graduate school information booth. |
