Dr. Naiomi Cameron, Lewis & Clark College

I am currently in my first year of teaching in the Mathematical Sciences Department at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, OR. As a former faculty member at Occidental College, I supervised two undergraduate students in summer research experiences and supported several students in preparing for research experiences and presentations.  I served as chapter advisor of Pi Mu Epsilon at Occidental, where I organized a speaker series featuring accessible, entertaining mathematical talks aimed at an undergraduate audience. I also supported students to attend and present at the MAA Section Meeting and at the Pi Mu Epsilon student session at Mathfest.

Dr. Alissa Crans, Loyola Marymount University

Having been both an undergraduate and graduate student in Southern California, I have attended the MAA section meetings for the past ten years.  I participated in the student poster session multiple times and I encouraged undergraduates to participate in the session both while I was a graduate student and this year as a faculty member.  In my first year as a faculty member, I have assisted two of our majors in preparing talks that they then presented at the Joint Meetings and the Nebraska Conference for Undergraduate Women in Mathematics.  This year, I brought one student to the Joint Meetings, one to the Nebraska Conference, and four students to the spring MAA section meeting.  In addition, I serve as one of the faculty advisors of our department’s Math Club/Pi Mu Epsilon Chapter.      

Dr. Kendra Killpatrick, Pepperdine University

I am an Associate Professor of Mathematics at Pepperdine University and serve as the faculty advisor for the student MAA chapter.  In addition, I formed a chapter of Pi Mu Epsilon, the national math honor society, in 2004 and serve as the chapter advisor.  I have supervised 9 undergraduate students in undergraduate research projects and have taken students to Mathfest, the fall and spring MAA section meetings and the Joint Meetings for the past three years.  I have had students give presentations in both student talk sessions and student poster sessions at these conferences.
