1. We will be serving pizza (free of charge, of course).

2. It has come to our attention that the problems we've been choosing are leaving a large percentage of people in the dust due to the fact that they have not had the opportunity to take certain upper level couses yet. By next Wednesday, we'll have a list of proposed questions that you can vote on. They will require generally no more than calc. II plus a fair amount of outside the box problem solving. They are not necessarily calculus problems. Please rank the choices from highest to lowest with 1 equalling the highest. Only vote if there is a good chance that you will be attending the meeting. We would like as many people to participate as possible.

3. In order to satiate the desires of those looking for killer applied problems that involve upper level math and research, I propose that we design a long term project. This has already been proposed at one of the meetings (Tim, I think). I already have an idea of a project I'd like to work on that would definitely be long term and difficult, but I'd really like other people interested in this idea to each propose at least one project concept of their own. Anything that peaks your interest is fine. Numerical techniques are fine. Please try and consider the fact that each person has a uniquely different set of skills due to their particular major. Try not to bias your question so much as to the point where others cannot truly contribute without a rediculous amount research.

4. Some people have requested demonstrations by members on various problems they have been working on. This is the perfect place for that kind of thing. By all means, contact me if you have something you've been working on that you would like to demonstrate to the group. It's even fine if the problem you're working on isn't finished or has you stumped. This would be a particularly good avenue to hash out ways to solve the problem.
