The Illinois Section of the MAA was founded in 1917, two years after the national Association was chartered. The Illinois Section is the tenth-oldest in the Association. The mission of the MAA is to advance the mathematical sciences, especially at the collegiate level. Since its inception, the Illinois Section has worked to help the MAA meet its mission.
Message from the Chair:
Colleagues and friends,
I encourage you to join us for our 2026 Annual Meeting. The conference this year is at the University of Illinois Springfield on March 27th and 28th. We'll have a great line-up of plenary speakers and breakout sessions, as well as a pre-conference workshop. As usual, we'll have events and talks suitable for undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty -- we look forward to seeing you and hope you are able to bring others as well!
Thank you,
Keven Hansen, Chair
