THE SIXTH SEMIANNUAL MATH HONORS-IN-DISCIPLINE DAY

The sixth SemiAnnual Math Honors-in-Discipline Day (SAMHIDD 6) was held on December 10, 2010 in Room 304 of Gilbreath Hall. Several presentations were given by students who registered for honors enhanced classes or honors thesis during fall 2010 (along with two presentations by students who took undergraduate research). Pizza from Papa John's was provided by the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. It was a very productive day of research presentation and lasted until 6:00 p.m.
