A message on behalf of the department:

Good Day,
We are seeking a few volunteers to help with an event on June 10th from 3:30 – 9:00. The event is a panel discussion with Dr. Manjul Bhargava and it takes place at Hart House here on campus.

We are essentially looking for people to help with set up and take down of the event (including moving some banners and signs), helping with the registration desk, etc.

You don’t need to stay for the entire event (although we will need a few people to stay until 9:00) and you are invited to listen to the discussion as well (it is quite an impressive panel of speakers from academia, industry and government and will focus on mathematics). Refreshments are also available.

If you are interested and available please let Pamela Brittain (outreach@math.toronto.edu) know and they she will put you in touch with the head organizers.

Are you interested in representing the University of Toronto this summer at the Canadian Undergraduate Mathematics Conference taking place July 13th-17th in Victoria, BC?

The Math Union will be funding a delegation to this year’s conference. Delegates will be required to present a 20 minute talk on a mathematical topic. If you are interested in applying for a spot, please send a writeup of your intended talk (approximately 3 pages) and a short cover letter containing your subject POSt, year of study, utoronto email, name and phone number to the math union email: mu@math.utoronto.ca (please submit documents in PDF form only).

Interested students should also fill out the CUMC Funding Release Form and submit it along with a copy of their transcript (a printout from acorn is okay) to Sonya at the main office (BA6290).

The application deadline is 11:59pm on Friday, May 20th.
