TITLE: "African Americans in Mathematics" EDITOR: Nathaniel Dean Preface Table of Contents PREFACE The Second Conference for African-American Researchers in the Mathematical Sciences was held for three days at the Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science (DIMACS) at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey, June 26-28, 1996. It was organized by Nathaniel Dean and William A. Massey, both of Bell Laboratories, the research division of Lucent Technologies. The main goal of the conference was to highlight current research by African-American researchers and graduate students in mathematics, to strengthen the mathematical sciences by encouraging the increased participation of African-American and underrepresented groups, to facilitate working relationships between them, and to help cultivate their careers.

Press Release: South Africa Wins Pan-African Maths Olympiad South Africa took top honours in the Tenth Pan-African Mathematics Olympiad (PAMO) held over the week 17-24 January 2000, winning Gold Medals in both the individuals and team categories. The Olympiad was hosted by the University of Cape Town and the University of the Western Cape. The South African team: Lisa Alberti, grade 12, Fairbairn College, Cape Town, Theo Mokgatlhe, grade 10, St Dominic's College, Welkom, Shen Tian, St David's Marist College, Johannesburg, Koos van Zyl, Hoerskool Overkruin, Pretoria. was ranked first among the seven competing teams, with Koos van Zyl winning overall first place and a Gold Medal. Shen Tian was ranked 4th and won a Silver Medal, while Lisa Alberti took 11th place and was awarded a Bronze Medal. The South African Team Leader was Professor Dirk Laurie, of the University of Potchefstroom. The seven competing countries were: Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Mozambique, South Africa and Uganda. The ``obvious question" we should all ask, answer, and try do something about for the future, is: Why didn't Zimbabwe take part?

Top 10 Women in Math History Mathematics as a field of science or philosophy was largely closed to women before the twentieth century. However, from ancient times through the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth century, a few women have achieved notably in mathematics. Here are ten women of note in early math their life stories and their achievements documented on this site. Maria Agnesi Oldest of 21 children and a child prodigy who studied languages and math, she wrote a textbook to explain math to her brothers which became a noted textbook on mathematics.

CONTACT: Sally Harris slharris@vt.edu AFRICAN-AMERICAN MATHEMATICIANS CONFERENCE BUILDS COMMUNITY "The goal of the conference was to provide a sense of community for African American math students and support their success academically and otherwise," Boisen said. "I believe that the conference was a success," said student Shawn Bruce, who organized the details of the conference. "I was pleased with the overall turnout for a first time event. I believe that we accomplished our goal and achieved our purpose. Hopefully, we will not only enhance and maintain our new community, but we will also be a blessing and help to others." The AAAM visits different places each year to meet with successful mathematicians in various fields, Boisen said. These mathematicians help students broaden their understanding of the career opportunities in mathematics and see that teaching is not the only thing a math major can do, he said. Graduate students work with members of the organization, building a bond of trust, Boisen said. Issues that could affect performance and retention are identified early instead of too late, he said.
