Seaway Section of MAA -- Chair's Note

A Message From the Chair

Gary Towsley, Fall 2005

It is raining hard in Geneseo this morning as I sit to write this report. I hope that the weather improves before next week's Fall Meeting of the Seaway Section that we are hosting. I hope to see many of you at what promises to be a meeting rich with excellent talks and opportunities for discussion.

We have the section meeting planned for Spring 2006 at Ithaca College, April 28-29. The deadline for contributed talks is February 20, a long way in the future it seems but we know that future dates are always much closer than they appear. Margaret Morrow would love to receive your talk abstract and other suggestions for the program well before the deadline. You can contact her at Mmorrowseaway@aol.com .

Plans are well underway for the Fall 2006 section meeting at Marist College. The location is outside the Seaway Section because this will be a joint meeting with the Metro Section. Details will be forthcoming when they have been finalized.

Speaking of meetings, we are looking for hosts for the Spring 2007 and Fall 2007 meetings.

We are very pleased to have Sam Northshield as the new editor of Seaway Current. It will be his job to catch all the errors of grammar and spelling that I will commit in this Chair's Report.

Finally I urge each of you to look around your department and see if there isn't someone who deserves a nomination for the Clarence Stephens Distinguished Teaching Award. The nomination form is on the section's website and nominations are due by February 1, 2006.
