Putnam Competition Registration Deadline approaching:
====================================================
RSVP ASAP
Announcement:
The Putnam Exam is a challenging undergraduate Math exam which takes place
the first Saturday every December (all over US and Canada, but locally
proctored
at each participating institution).
If you would like to participate (or at least seriously consider to participate)
please e-mail me back ASAP at [log in to unmask]
We have to register participants soon, and I intend to do this on Monday
first thing
in the morning.
(We can add last minute substitutes for students originally registered but not
participating; so I don't mind registering one or two `maybe interested',
even if they
tell me later they won't come.)
That 1st Sat in December is football free; so the campus is clear.
Should any would-be participant have issues with the Saturday slot for religious
reasons, accommodations can be made for this, but are not trivial. Please
identify
such a need right along with your registration request.
Contact me if you need extra information.
VTRMC:
======
The Virginia Tech Regional Math Competition was originlly designed as a `warmup'
for Putnam and will take place on October 24 (also a Saturday), during the
morning.
Oct 24 also happens to have a football free campus this year.
Please let me also know (for logistical reasons) if you plan to participate.
For VTRMC, the `official' Registration for this is by arrival at the proper
time and
place (in Ayres Hall); but for logistical reasons I need to hear from you
sooner.
Let's have a strong team for either!!
