We welcome all students who are interested in math, including prospective math-majors and current math-majors, to join us in exploring the realm of mathematics. We organize various events throughout the year to give students a taste of not only the theoretical aspect of math but also its various application in life. If you are interested in becoming part of the big math family, please email pennugmath AT gmail.com. In the meanwhile, we encourage you to explore our website to become familiar with our past activties.
