Information for Students

CMC³ is all about the enjoyment and learning of mathematics and has much to offer students. The two conferences,held in December in Monterey and in April in Lake Tahoe, welcome students. Any full time community college math student can come to the conference to listen to invited speakers present what they know about mathematics and mathematics teaching. The conference cost for students is just $5.00. Students who want to have lunch at the conference will be charged extra.

There are two special opportunities for students for the upcoming conference at Lake Tahoe.

Student Mathematics Speaker at the Tahoe Conference

CMC³ will honor one student who has investigated a topic or application of mathematics. The selected student will come to the CMC³ Recreational Mathematics Conference and give a 20 minute presentation on the student's work. Thanks to Debra Landre, instructor at San Joaquin Delta College, who has sponsored an award of $500 for the selected student. Students must have a Community College math faculty member serve as mentor. Interested students can contact Larry Green at GreenL@LTCC.edu for more information. Students can fill out their online application at the callForStudentProposal online application.

Receive College Credit for Attending the Tahoe Conference

Students enroll in Lake Tahoe Community College's MAT 119 (Topics in Applied Mathematic) and receive half a unit of college credit. Students attend the talks at the conference and then provide a brief synopsis of the talks that they attended. Interested students can contact Larry Green at GreenL@LTCC.edu for more information.
