Joint Mathematics Meetings Media Coverage:
Here are some links to coverage of the meeting: KOMO-TV segment about the 2016 national Who Wants to Be a Mathematician; KING5-TV segment, and "Mathematicians showcase students doing what they love," by Jerry Large, Seattle Times (published on Jan. 11, after meeting attendees were almost everywhere else). In addition, Eric Landquist (Kutztown University) did a segment on KCPQ-TV on Saturday, Jan. 9 (regarding the probability of the Seattle Seahawks winning their first playoff game (60%) and winning the Super Bowl (about 1 in 6)).

The National Who Wants to Be a Mathematician game:
See the 2016 national Who Wants to Be a Mathematician webpage for videos, photos and more information about the contestants and game.
