Greetings math students, 
 
Meeting:  

         This Thursday, Nov. 11.  We will be going over the 2003 Putnam exam.  
If you would like to work out some problems before you come, go to the club 
website: http://web.njit.edu/~kgp4/   which has a link where you can
find the 
past Putnam exams.  

|Note|:   Even if you aren't competing, you can still come and practice the 
problems, in preparation for next year's competition.  After all, this test 
represents the most famous and most competitive honor that anyone can attain 
as an undergraduate --the winner being awarded a full scholarship to Harvard 
grad. school.


Soccer:

        The date for the Soccer Match against the Professors has been set:  
the morning of Dec.10,2004.  I know's it on a Friday morning and it will 
probably be cold...however, you had better show some fortitude and compete!  
We need to "school" the professors outside of the classroom.  Email me
if you 
want to play.
