Dear Math Students,
You may or may not have heard that you may stop by the office of the Dean
of Students and pick up free lunch passes for you and one of your
professors. This is an excellent chance to talk to one of your professors
about his/her interests in mathematics, possible undergraduate research
opportunities, etc.
For more information about Lunch Hours, visit

Regards,
