Donations

There is no charge for attending the math circle; however, we do have some expenses, and if you would like to make a tax-deductible contribution, this page: Donations to the San Jose Math Circle explains why we need the money and how to do so.

Upcoming Meetings, 2007-8

The following schedule shows who will be leading the circle on a given day but some topics have not yet been decided. Some of these dates may be pre-empted by BAMA talks; the necessary adjustments will be made as we learn the BAMA talk dates. "TBD" = "To Be Determined".

New room: The sessions will take place in MacQuarrie Hall, 320 (MH 320) from 7:00-9:00 pm.
