Meeting Minutes


Meeting called to order 6:14 PM, or 1814 in Colinspeak.

Spiffy mathelicous happenings:

Our honorable president expressed a desire to hurt aBa after he insisted that everyone introduce himself or herself by stating his or her favorite animal.

Jeremiah reminded everyone about the mathematical modeling competition. Those interested contact him or aBa.

Boanne (that is sqrt(-1)) talked about a dead mathematician: none other than "that hospital guy," L'Hospital.

Carlos did an easy problem and a hard one.

aBa requested volunteers to help chalk the boards. Jacquelyn very awesomely volunteered. Her sunshine- and smiley-drawing skills will be put to the test, but we all have confidence that she is up to the challenge.

aBa will be tragically absent from our next meeting; he is ditching us to go to Missouri for some mathish thing.

Colin dazzled us with his stunning rendition of kid tunes: "Pop Goes the Weasel" with quadratic formula lyrics and "Minnie the Moocher" featuring the quotient rule.

Let it be known that Colin still is not happy about sexual harassment training.
