Thanks.

A while ago, I left an actuary book in the Math Club library with the thought that a member might want to borrow it, but I haven't seen it. I was wondering if anyone knows what happened to it.

Research Experience for Undergraduates sites are beginning to announce their
programs for 2010. While most of them do not have that information up yet, I

Over the many programs, there is a wide variety of projects - statistics,

Just because many of us have cars and can drive ourselves separately
doesn't mean we should. If anyone else is planning on staying for
dinner and would like to carpool to minimize carbon emissions, I'd

offer the 3 other seats in my car (or 2 if Kate claims one of them;

The math club is always accepting donations. We do keep a collection

your room? Should we arrange a pickup?

I would have no problem meeting at SJSU if I wasn't driving from
Fremont. If no one else will, I could drive down and pick you up. But
it sounds really ridiculous and I'd be surprised if there wasn't

Well that was embarrassing, I was hoping to cut down on everyone's
email by just mailing the people who agreed to drive. Sorry for the
spam.
