Activities: Our chapter is conjunction with our universities math club held the first annual Integration Bee. Students competed in a spelling bee style competition solving integrals see through a typical calculus II course. Because of the PME prize grant, we were able to offer $150 in total prizes to the students. The chapter and club are looking forward to holding the event again next year. Additionally, our induction ceremony was a big success. With over 50 attendees students, their families, and faculty were able to honor our students achievements. We also invited Dr. Phanuel Mariano to give a talk entitled "Can you hear the shape of a drum?". Next year we intend to hold our ceremony in person for the first time in three years.
Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present at the PME National Meeting this year? Not that I am aware of.
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.
Many of our inductees present honor's thesis or internally funded research at BSU, but I am not aware of any students presenting at regional or national conferences.
If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results.
