Purpose:
WOU's Math Club is an organization intended to promote new mathematical interest and stimulate that interest where it already exists.
General Overview of Activities:
We get together about twice a month for talks, discussions, movie watching, and of course pizza or cookies. We are planning on a number of exciting talks for this term and beyond! Our meetings usually consist of talks by WOU students and faculty on various mathematical topics. We also try to bring in guest lecturers whenever possible. Although geared toward students involved and interested in math, our lectures are designed to be accessible to anyone with a college preparatory math background.
