Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present at the PME National Meeting this year? Our members Lucas Vega and Millie Jeske both presented at the undergraduate poster session at JMM 2024 in San Francisco. We have three undergraduate students working on original research this summer and hope that they will all present at JMM 2025.

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.
Lucas Vega will be attending Texas A&M University to pursue a masters in statistics. Millie Jeske is participating in the University of Texas System's Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Summer Research Academy doing original research in partitions. Mat Taylor and Jenna Rogers are doing original research in NSF-funded REU groups, working on partitions and graph splines, respectively.

If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results.
