Events
Our department is very active with speaking events, student club activities, and celebrations of milestones. Each fall and spring the department hosts a convocation of faculty and students to kick off the semester. At the end of the spring semester, the department holds an awards banquet to recognize the achievements of our students and award scholarships. Our main speaking series is the R. W. Yeagy Colloquium, sponsored by the College of Sciences and Mathematics.
