Women in Mathematics 2011 - 2012
To the right and below are pictures from our Women in Mathematics Informal Lunch on March 31st, 2011.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Seminar for Women in Mathematics is to provide a relaxed, supportive and stress-free environmentin which women graduate students, advanced undergraduate students, postdocs and faculty in the department can interact.
It also provides a place where women may give talks and discuss mathematics at a level accessible to all graduate students.
