We are the Williams College student chapter of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM). The chapter was established in 2015. The Association's main mission is to "create a community in which women and girls can thrive in their mathematical endeavors and to promote equitable opportunity and gender-inclusivity across the mathematical sciences."
Our chapter is open and welcoming to everyone.
Join the AWM Student Chapter for our first Meet & Greet of the year!
Come meet other students interested in mathematics, learn more about the chapter and our plans for the year, and share ideas for future events. Whether you’ve been involved with AWM before or are just curious to learn more, everyone is welcome.
The event will take place on Thursday 09/24 at 2-3pm in the Frank Morgan Library. We will have refreshments and snacks!
