Math Association of America
The Hampden-Sydney Student Chapter of the Mathematical Association of America was established to promote interest in the mathematical sciences, to disseminate information about careers and further study in the mathematical sciences, and to provide a vehicle for students and faculty with an interest in mathematics to meet for both social and professional activities. Membership is open to all students of the College who are interested in mathematics and related areas. Members need not be mathematics and computer science majors and need not have any particular class standing or grade point average. The Student Chapter of the Mathematical Association of America is not an honor society. The membership fee is $15.00 per year and includes subscriptions to three of the publications of the Association.
The parent organization, the Mathematical Association of America, is the largest organization in the world devoted to the interests of collegiate mathematics. It holds national and regional meetings each year, where students are encouraged to present papers. It publishes various periodicals, books, and pamphlets on topics of interest to the mathematical community, conducts several national mathematics contests each year, and provides speakers on topics of interest to undergraduate mathematics students and professors.
