Graduate School Fair 2008Thanks to the recent increase in undergraduate participation at the January meetings, the AMS and MAA decided to offer, for the first time, a grad school fair. It was held on Tuesday morning, January 8. Representatives from 45 schools set up tables with colorful banners, flyers and handouts, and over 300 undergraduates attended and conferred with the faculty and graduate students present. It was a lively, informative session that is likely to become a standard feature of the January meetings. --- Diane Boumenot, Manager of Membership & Programs |
