September 26, 2017

During today's meeting we discussed upcoming events for the chapter. Due to the number of people who have schedule conflicts with our Tuesday at 11 am time a poll will be sent out later with new potential meeting times. We would like to as many people as possible to be able to attend meetings.

The upcoming events include carpooling to the 13th Annual UNCG Regional Mathematics and Statistics Conference in Greensboro. The registration is free and open to all participants - high school, undergraduate and graduate students, high school teachers, and faculty. A modest support for students to cover transportation and local expenses is available but preference will be given to those who give talk at the conference. Please see the flyer below. This is a day trip and carpool arrangements will be made in October.

The organizations other activities have pending dates and will be scheduled according to members availability. These activities include student only talks. To help enhance public speaking skills, the AWM chapter will organize practice symposiums in which only students will attend and present research or new interesting things they've learned in math. These talks will be very informal and all students are encouraged to participate.

The club will also hold a movie night (tentatively, the movies is Hidden Figures) and a nonmath social outing.

To all female members, if you have not signed up for a mentor this school year and would like one please email me stating you would like a mentor as well as your year. Your direct mentor will be a female graduate student in the math department. This is an invaluable recourse I encourage you to use.

Lastly, instructions on how students can ​sign up for the free national memberships are also attached below.
