Activities: 1. Co-organizing/Sponsoring the first Annual PiMUC (Pacific Inland Mathematics Undergraduate Conference) held at Gonzaga. The purpose of the conference is to provide a Spring venue for undergraduates to present work on their Senior Capstones, Individual Research Projects, Original Solutions to COMAP, and other Mathematical Contest. Many of the Universities and Colleges in the Pacific Inland Region are isolated. Our goal is to provide an opportunity for students to meet each other, show off their hard work, and bond over their love of Mathematics. (https://sites.google.com/view/pimuc/) // 2. In conjunction with Gonzaga's Math Club, hosting a Mathematical Movie Night. Nova's "A Great Math Mystery" was shown. Pizza was consumed.
