Meeting Notes

Update on January 2024 meeting...

Hello Math Club!

We held our first meeting today in room L215 (though it will always be L170 in my heart).  We voted in a new President, Colter Marty, and a new Vice President, Natalia Stariha!  Beth will stay on as secretary.  Congratulations!

In other news, we have two AMATYC competitions coming up, the Student Math League, which runs from February 17 - March 2.  This is a math competition, Round 2 (Round 1 was last semester) involving a math test (details at https://amatyc.org/page/StudentMathLeague).  Seth Kingman, one of the math fellows, has graciously offered to help coach the team.  Look for a follow up email in the next day or so for more details.

The Student Research League (details at https://amatyc.org/page/StudentResLeague) is open for registration.  The competition itself runs from March 18 to April 18.  This is a different kind of competition involving teams of two or three people working on a research problem and using mathematical modeling to support their idea.  Interested students can reach out to mathclub@saintpaul.edu for more information.

Stay tuned for more!

Update on  Wednesday, 10/4/22.
Hello Everyone!
We had a most wonderful meeting last week. I wanted to share with you some of the topics we covered.
Math Club is looking for Officers (President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary). If you are interested in joining the leadership group of Math Club please send me an email. I hope to have elections at the end of this month.
Math Club needs to ratify a constitution. I will attach the draft constitution to this email. Please take a look at it and let me know what you think. We will be having a ratification vote at the end of this month.
I am looking to have another meeting each month. Please fill out this doodle poll with the times that work best for you. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/aKZDGJne
