On Monday, May 17th, 2021 the OSU Pi Mu Epsilon chapter honored and inducted 33 undergraduates, who have shown exceptional scholarly activity in mathematics, into the national mathematics honor society.
Pi Mu Epsilon (PME) is dedicated to the promotion of mathematics and recognition of students who successfully pursue mathematical understanding. To promote mathematics, the National Pi Mu Epsilon Council sponsors an annual conference in conjunction with the Mathematics Association of America’s (MAA) annual MathFest. Pi Mu Epsilon also sponsors a journal devoted to topics in mathematics accessible to undergraduate students. Papers from OSU students and faculty have appeared in this refereed forum. OSU's chapter, Oregon Beta, was installed in 1938 and has been active since its re-installation in 2008.
The ceremony featured a colloquium lecture, "Mathematics and the Future of Biomedical Imaging" by guest speaker Prof. Melody Alsaker of Gonzaga University.
