Association for Women in Mathematics-MSU Chapter

There’s an AWM meeting tomorrow at 5 pm! Anyone is welcome so bring your friends! We will be finalizing our t-shirt design!

For the month of October, AWM is collected canned goods and other nonperishable foods to donate to Racers Helping Racers, the on-campus food pantry for student. Food insecurity is very common, especially among college students, so we are setting up bins in Faculty Hall to collect donations, one on the 1st floor lobby and one in the Math Department on the 6th floor! Please share with your friends and contribute what you can to help our fellow racers!

Come join AWM for a hike at Land Between the Lakes to kick off fall! We will be meeting at faculty hall at 1 pm this Saturday then drive to LBL. Bring plenty of water and good walking/hiking shoes! DM us if you have any questions!

I hope to see some of y'all there! We will be making revisions to Murray State AWM's constitution! Be there or be "|x|+|y|=1"!
