Activities: Our induction ceremony was held in April, led by four of our continuing members. Chapter adviser Carrie Green presented the inductees with their membership certificates and honor cords for graduation. We invited a graduating senior and Pi Mu Epsilon member, Sam Conrow, to speak to our newest inductees. Sam talked about her favorite memories of being a math major at SUNY Geneseo and her plans for graduate school.

Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present at the PME National Meeting this year? Not at this time

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.
As usual, we have several students beginning Ph.D. programs in mathematics or masters programs in education, receiving competitive job offers in industry, and beginning teaching careers. At our college's annual GREAT Day (Geneseo Recognizing Excellence, Achievement & Talent) undergraduate symposium, many students gave talks and presented posters.

If you were awarded a PME Lectureship, Conference, or Prize Grant within the past year, please briefly describe the results.
Each year we offer math competition prizes, known to us as the Pi Mu Epsilon Prizes, to encourage student participation in the Putnam Exam and other mathematical competitions. Half of the prize money is provided by a PME prize grant, with matching funds from our Department of Mathematics. This year, the PME Prizes were given to Julian King and Ethan List for their commendable results on the Putnam Exam.
