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:

I hope you will consider joining us for our upcoming annual meeting, which will be a big celebration of our sections history. This meeting will be our 100th annual meeting and while it will be completely online it should be a fantastic event. We have three plenary speakers J. Alan Alewine from McKendree University, last year's Early Career Teaching Award Recipient Angela Antonou from St. Francis University, and Edward Kim from UW LaCrosse. We hope you can virtually join us this year.

Thanks,
Ellen Ziliak, chair
Illinois Section of the MAA
