Hello,

 

I am hoping to reach the person or people in your mathematics department who would be responsible for forwarding job postings to undergraduate and graduate mathematics students. If you are not the appropriate person, I would really appreciate it if you could please forward this email appropriately, or let me know who I should contact. If your institution does not forward job postings to students, it would be great if the fliers could be printed and posted on a bulletin board in your department.

 

It would also be helpful if I could send another similar email to you for distribution later in the season in the event that we are still looking to fill counselor positions. If you prefer not getting an additional email from us in the spring, please let me know.

 

Epsilon Camp is a unique residential summer camp for highly gifted 7-12 year-olds with exceptional mathematical ability and a love of mathematics. We are currently in the process of recruiting our counselors for the summer of 2024. We require that all of our counselors be mathematics majors who have taken at least some upper-division mathematics courses; they must also be excited about working with children. Our campers study topics such as methods of proof, number theory, projective geometry, sets and functions, and group theory in classes taught by university professors, so counselors with a very strong mathematics background are essential. Many of our counselors find it to be such a rewarding experience that they choose to return several years in a row.

 

I am attaching a flier of the Counselor job posting that I’m hoping you can forward to mathematics majors and graduate students in your department.

 

Thank you so much for your help!

Best

Rajdeep
