Describe the two most interesting or unusual chapter activities this year:

Hosting the annual Pi Mu Epsilon Regional Undergraduate Math conference in November. Traveling to the Madison Area Technical College to explain and demonstrate the square-wheeled bicycle with Dr. Terry Jo Leiterman.

Do any of your chapter members plan to attend or present a paper at the 2009 PME national meeting at MathFest in Portland, Oregon?

Yes, at least two speakers.

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?

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

We received a $100 grant to help with the costs of hosting the annual St. Norbert College Pi Mu Epsilon Regional Undergraduate Mathematics Conference. Dr. Eve Torrence, President-Elect for PME, was the featured speaker. We had a record attendance of over 200.
