Reception
National Building Museum
401 F Street NW, Washington, DC
July 13, 2001
Following the CMI Annual Meeting and the IMO Awards Ceremony, the IMO participants and guests of the Clay Mathematics Institute traveled from the Kennedy Center to the National Building Museum, which houses the largest indoor space in Washington, DC. Events on July 13 at the National Building Museum included a reception and dinner.
Student Presentations
During the reception, guests were able to view seven presentations of original research projects created by young mathematics students, each of which will be mentored by one of the Clay Mathematics Institute Long Term Prize Fellows. Gabriel Carroll, Jayce Robert Getz, Travis Schedler, Alexander (Sasha) Schwartz, Lisa Beth Schwartz, Jake Wildstrom, and Melanie Wood presented projects at the Reception To Honor the Spirit of Mathematics following the Awards Ceremony.
Large posters created by each student describing the individual research projects were presented during the reception. The CMI has paired each of these seven students with one of the CMI Long-Term Prize Fellows, and as a result of their participation in this event, each student will be mentored in future research by the corresponding Long-Term Prize Fellow.
