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.
Rebecca Claxton and Teddy Mishura present research at an annual Math Conference at Moravian College. Rebecca’s topic was on Rearrangement Groups of Fractals, And Teddy’s was on Self-Avoiding Walks.

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 to aid in awarding winners of Stockton’s Math Mayhem. The grant was matched by the chapter and used to purchase gift cards for recipients of the math competition.
