Statement of Purpose:
Our prime goal is promotion of mathematics among students, faculty and
the
community at large, especially here at the U of M. To do this on an
ongoing
basis we sponsor events of a recreational and educational nature and
disseminate information about mathematics that is of interest beyond
the
"elite" mathematical community.
Specifically, we watch movies and films focussing on mathematics or
mathematicians, play mathematical games, listen to talks by
mathematicians
or math hobbyists, solve problems and learn about the latest
developments
in the world of mathematics.
All members of the university or surrounding community are welcome
to
participate in math club activities, be they faculty, students, staff
or interested observers. More serious mathematically-inclined
undergraduates
should also consider joining our Problem Solving Seminar and
taking part in mathematics contests.
