| Title of Talk | Math Summer Camp for Professors |
| Abstract | This summer I spent three weeks at the Park City Mathematics Institute as an Undergraduate Faculty Participant. The focus was on the interaction between Geometry and Analysis, but in reality, this turned out to be General Relativity. As Undergraduate Faculty they brought us up to speed academically on this cool topic, but they also depended on us to be the glue to get the other participants communicating with each other. This talk will address how the mathematics institute works and why you should find a way to attend this fabulous experience. |
