The Conference will give outstanding undergraduate
women the opportunity to discuss their own research and to meet other
women who share their interest in the mathematical sciences. Conference
activities on Friday will occur on the university's city
campus, and on Saturday and Sunday at the Lincoln Downtown
Holiday Inn, a short walk
from downtown Lincoln.
Conference participants will also have a chance
to learn about life in graduate school from the perspective
of current women graduate students representing math departments
from across the country. Although we do not regard this Conference
as an appropriate venue for faculty representatives to recruit
applicants for their graduate programs, we would like to encourage
departments to contact us about sponsoring women graduate students
from their programs at the Conference.
The Organizing Committee gratefully acknowledges
generous support from the National Science Foundation
(through our
Mentoring Through Critical Transition Points grant) and
the National Security Agency.
