Undergraduate Poster Session
Students are encouraged to present research and results of special projects in poster format. The session is scheduled for Saturday morning, concurrent with contributed talks. Abstracts should be submitted through the conference website no later than Monday, January 27, 2025. Poster presenters will be provided with a tripod, posterboard, and binder clips. Printed posters can be any size, but 48” x 36” is the most common. Appropriate content for a poster includes, but is not limited to, a new result, a new proof of a known result, a new mathematical model, an innovative solution to a Putnam problem, or a method of solution to an applied problem. Contact organizer Shalmali Bandyopadayayay (sbandyo5@utm.edu) if you need additional information.

Math Jeopardy Competition
Teams of three or four undergraduates will compete in a mathematical version of the well-known answer-and-question game. Competition is limited. There is a $25.00 registration fee for each team, and registration will be available soon. Topics will include calculus (single and multivariable), linear algebra, differential equations, and discrete mathematics. The preliminary rounds for Math Jeopardy will be scheduled for Friday morning from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. To register team members so their names may be included in the program, or to find out more, contact Ron Taylor (rtaylor@berry.edu) or Karen O’Hara (kohara@highpoint.edu).

Treasure Hunt
On Thursday evening (February 27, 2025), there will be a Mathematics Treasure Hunt for students and their advisors. Students will use mathematics to solve clues and look for a “treasure.” This is a fun, non-competitive event that will give students an opportunity to meet and work with students from other colleges and universities. Check-in is between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. with the event starting at 7:30 p.m. It is also greatly appreciated if math club advisors would be willing to help with this event. If you have any questions or would like to volunteer to help, please contact Karen O’Hara (kohara@highpoint.edu)

Graduate School and Career Fair
In this venue, students considering graduate school in mathematical sciences have opportunities to meet with representatives of various graduate programs. In addition, those seeking jobs in industry, business, or government in the mathematical sciences can meet with potential employers. Faculty mentors are also welcome. Pizza will be served free to students, and a raffle will be held for students visiting the exhibits. For those exhibiting, the $25 table fee can be paid through the conference website. Representatives of graduate programs and businesses should contact Karen O’Hara (kohara@highpoint.edu) for more information.

Math T-Shirt Contest
The best mathematics t-shirt at the meeting will be recognized with an announcement, a certificate, and a featured picture in the fall newsletter. Get your Math Club organized now for a great t-shirt in the spring.
