Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter activities this year:
The chapter elected to induct 11 members of the SJU class of 1974 who were instrumental in the effort to establish a chapter here but who were not already members. These 11 are in addition to the 9 undergraduates elected, so in total, the chapter elected 20 new members.
Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2011 PME national meeting at MathFest in Lexington, Kentucky?
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?
