Student speakers must complete the remainder of this form.
Due to the large number of students who wish to present at summer meetings and with a desire to avoid redundancy in their programs, the MAA Committee on Student Chapters and Pi Mu Epsilon have agreed not to accept papers submitted by the same student to both paper sessions at MathFests. This applies even if the papers are different. Furthermore, in the case of joint authorship, it is not permissible for one co-author to apply to one session while another submits the same paper to the other session. Under no circumstances will a student be allowed to apply for transportation funds from both organizations. Therefore:
Yes No I agree not to apply to give a paper at the MAA Student Paper Session.
The rooms in which the presentation will be given in Providence will be furnished with a standard overhead projector and screen. Other media services cannot be provided, however for the Providence meeting, speakers will be allowed to bring their own projection system (to use PowerPoint, for example).
Yes No I understand the equipment policy.
Note: Presentation time limit of 15 minutes will be strictly enforced.
*Note: The Presentation Faculty Advisor should be the faculty member who served as your faculty advisor or instructor for the project on which your presentation is based. The Presentation Faculty Advisor will be contacted to verify suitability of the project for presentation at the Pi Mu Epsilon National Meeting.
If, after hitting the Submit key, you do not see a verification, please notify Jennifer Galovich.
If the PME Advisor does not receive confirmation of receipt of this form within 5 days please email Jennifer Galovich. Questions or comments on the conference itself may also be sent to her.
