The 2015 meeting in Washington, D.C. was an extra day long in order to include events to mark the centennial anniversary of the MAA.

Events

MathFest features many annual lectures, such as the Earle Raymond Hedrick Lecture Series, which consists of up to three lectures by the same presenter, on three consecutive days, [4] and the AWM-MAA Falconer Lecture, which is given by a distinguished female mathematician or mathematics educator.[5]

gollark: Good idea.
gollark: no, contribute to potatOS.
gollark: My thing:- redefines FS functions in new env table- deep-copies a bunch of permitted APIs/libraries into it- redefines getfenv, load in env table- runs init file in new environment via `load`
gollark: And I think it's defaulting to the environment outside the sandbox, somehow.
gollark: os.run is run inside that init file.
