Call for New Faculty Papers

 

New faculty participating the Northeastern Section Fall MAA meeting are invited to submit papers for the New Faculty session. The purpose of these talks is to introduce you to the section. These talks should focus on either your research or pedagogical activities. If you are giving a talk on your research, please remember that there will be people in the audience that are unfamiliar with your research area so it might be helpful to give some background and motivation. Your presentations should be approximately 15 minutes in length. Overhead projectors and computers with projection capabilities may be available.

Please send a 25 word or less abstract, any special equipment needs you may have and your mailing address to Phil Hotchkiss at photchkiss AT wsc.ma.edu or Chris Aubuchon at Christopher.Aubuchon AT jsc.edu. Email submissions are preferred, but you may also send a typed submission to

Phil Hotchkiss
Department of Mathematics
Westfield State College
Westfield, MA 01086

or

Chris Aubuchon
Department of Mathematics
Johnson State College
337 College Hill
Johnson VT 05656

The deadline for submission of abstracts is November 1.


 

Call for Contributed Papers

 

Participants at the Fall Meeting of the section are invited to submit contributed papers. We are particularly interested in papers which will appeal to a variety of participants. If you are planning to speak about results of your research, keep in mind that the audience most likely will not be familiar with your specialty, so you will want to give some motivation and context for your work. Your presentation should be approximately 15 minutes in length.

 

Please send an abstract and your mailing address together with a list of any special equipment you may need to Rob Poodiack at rpoodiac@norwich.edu.

E-mail submissions are preferred, but you may also send a typed submission to

 

    Rob Poodiack

    Department of Mathematics

    Norwich University

    158 Harmon Drive

    Northfield, VT  05663

 

The deadline for submission of abstracts for the Fall 2008 Meeting at Bentley College is November 7th, 2008.
