Dear REU advisors,
 
I hope that the summer is going well for all of you and would like to 
announce the call for abstracts for the annual MAA Undergraduate Poster 
Session (see description below).  Due to conflicts with preparation for 
Math Fest, there has been discussion of beginning abstract submission on 
September 1st versus August 1st as done in the past.  My concern was 
that this may reduce student submissions from REUs since they would have 
already returned to the home institutions for their final school year.  
Please let me know if this will be a problem.  If so, I have several 
solutions in mind.
 
Diana
 

/Undergraduate Student Poster Session/, Wednesday, 4:00 p.m.-5:30 p.m., 
organized by *Diana Thomas*, Montclair State University. The session is 
reserved to undergraduates and first-year graduate students submitting 
posters on work done while undergraduates. Abstracts are accepted on a 
first come basis.  Space is limited and students are encouraged to apply 
early.  Beginning August 1, 2008 students can submit abstracts on-line 
at _http://www.maa.org/students/undergrad/poster09.htm_. Examples of 
poster topics include a new result, a different proof of a known 
theorem, an innovative solution of a Putnam problem, a new mathematical 
model or method of solution an applied problem. Purely expository 
posters cannot be accepted. Prizes will be awarded to the top rated 
posters with money provided by the AMS, MAA, AWM, CUR, PME and by the 
Moore Foundation. Trifold, self-standing 48" by 36" tabletop posters 
will be provided. Additional material or equipment is the responsibility 
of the presenters. Questions regarding the 2009 Undergraduate Student 
Poster Session may be directed to Diana Thomas at 
thomasdia at mail.montclair.edu 
<javascript:main.compose('new','t=o:thomasdia at mail.montclair.edu')> . 
The deadline for proposals is Friday, November 7, 2008. The session is 
sponsored by the MAA-CUPM Subcommittee on Undergraduate Research and the 
MAA Committee on Undergraduate Student Activities and Chapters (CUSAC).
