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]
