Dear all,
this is the Third and Final Announcement for the fifth
YOUNG MATHEMATICIANS CONFERENCE
at The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH on
August 17-19, 2007.
Please see the previous two announcements appended below for the
details of the conference program.
This announcement serves mainly to remind students and mentors of
the impending deadline for applications in less than four days:
MONDAY, July 23rd, at 11:59pm (PDT)
Expect the online application to shut down on time, and make sure
to leave some room for internet/computer problems. The direct link
to this year's application page is
http://www.math.ohio-state.edu/conferences/ymc/2007/apply.php
Applicants should familiarize themselves with the information in
the three links under "Applicant Resources".
The review and decision process will start immediately after the
deadline and we expect to have most decisions made by the end of
next week. Be aware that we anticipate more applications than we
can accommodate. We will ensure a fair, thorough, and expeditious
selection process with a panel of 8-10 experienced mathematical
faculty who will judge all applications and with the oversight and
collective wisdom of the YMC advisory board.
Applicants should check their email frequently next week. Invitees
will also need to make travel arrangements and complete an additional
form for confirmation/pre-registration immediately after they received
an invitation email.
Best wishes & good luck, Thomas Kerler

Dear all:
This is our first announcement for the
fifth YOUNG MATHEMATICIANS CONFERENCE at
The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio on
August 17 - 19, 2007.
The conference provides an opportunity for undergraduate students
around the country to present their research in mathematics in
short talks and posters, and for mentors to exchange ideas. You can
browse previous YMC events at
http://www.math.osu.edu/conferences/ymc
This year's plenary speakers are
Ruth Charney (Brandeis University)
Dennis DeTurck (University of Pennsylvania)
Amelia Taylor (Colorado College)
We are pleased to announce that we have received sufficient funds to
support approx. 70 student participants and several mentors as we did
in previous years. The tentative application deadline for support is
July 18th, 2007 (subject to change)
The web page for 2007 is still under construction and will open in
about three weeks from now. It will contain online application forms
for students and mentors as well as a lot of useful conference
information. You will be able to access the YMC 2007 site through our
main page at
http://www.math.osu.edu/conferences/ymc
We'd greatly appreciate if you could let your students, colleagues,
peers, or anyone else involved in undergraduate research know about
our conference and forward this announcement and the links to them.
We will send out further announcements once the web page is up and
more detailed information about the conference is available.
Thank you!
