This announces the Virginia Tech Regional Math Competition (VTRMC). It takes place this upcoming Saturday Oct 30, from 9-11:30 am, locally administered at each participationg institution Undergraduates of any major with strong math background are strongly encouraged to participate. This includes, but is not limited to those individuals that are planning to take the Putnam exam in December. More info about the VTRMC can be found at http://www.math.vt.edu/people/plinnell/Vtregional/ Money prizes are available for the strongest performers. In principle, based on our insitutional registration to participate, we can register students right on the day of the exam. However I request that INTERESTED PARTICIPANTS PLEASE CONTACT ME before Friday for logistical reasons (Xeroxing enough exams). I will then notify everybody who has shown interest of the room (likely in HBB) Individuals that are already registered to participate in the Putnam competition will by default be considered to have shown interest in VTRMC as well, unless they notify me to the contrary. I have already added those students (one, actually) who have already contacted me about their interest in VTRMC. Looking forward to seeing a strong turnout for VTRMC on Saturday morning.
