Kappa Mu Epsilon Inducts New Members

On Sunday, March 30, 2008, eleven new members were initiated into the Pennsylvania Rho Chapter of Kappa Mu Epsilon at Thiel College, Greenville, PA.  Professor Max Shellenbarger, faculty sponsor, and Angela Crone, current President, served as the Masters of Ceremony.  Dr. John Nichols gave a talk about the process he went through as a student to decide on a career as a Professor of Mathematics.  The members were then initiated and the new officers inducted.

Kappa Mu Epsilon is a specialized honor society in Mathematics. KME was founded in 1931 to promote the interest of mathematics among undergraduate students. Its chapters are located in colleges and universities of recognized standing which offer a strong mathematics major. The chapters' members are selected from students of mathematics and other closely related fields who have maintained standards of scholarship, have professional merit, and have attained academic distinction. The society has grown steadily since its founding and today has one hundred eighteen chapters and approximately sixty-one thousand members in thirty-four states.

The new members are pictured left above.  From bottom to top are Devin Todd, Syrell Rodriguez Carreras, Haley Prickard, Amanda Hawkins, Patrick Mitch, and Professor Andrew Grover.  Also initiated but not present were Professor Jennifer J. Curry, Michael Johnson, Elise Moore, Laura Wise, and Dr. Jie Wu.

Elected officers are: Angela Crone, president, Kaitlyn Scherer, vice president, Michael Ryan, recording secretary and Cassandra Beck, treasurer.
