Welcome!

Traditionally the AMC Coordinator of MAA-Michigan holds two recognition ceremonies for the Michigan award winners of the AMC competitions each year: an Awards Ceremony, and a photo reception with the Governor if possible,

This year, we will hold our Awards Ceremony at Oakland University with Professor Jerrold Grossman of Oakland University. Professor Grossman is an alumnus of Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a prolific writer. He has been heavily involved with the committee that prepares the AMC, and wrote several of the questions on the 2011 exams. Professor Grossman will ask the question: What day of the week is it? Your challenge before coming to the Awards Ceremony is: determine exactly how many days old you will be on Friday, September 9, 2011, and use that fact to determine what day of the week you were born on. I sincerely hope that you will enjoy the challenge and the evening with Professor Grossman!

During the past six years, we held Awards Ceremonies with distinguished speakers from Michigan universities, and arranged photo receptions with Michigan Governors at the Governor's office in Lansing. The past AMC Michigan activities are archived under the Archive link on the left.

The purpose of having this page is to build a convenient tool to communicate with the students, teachers, and parents about our events. The official AMC Coordinator (MAA-Michigan) website is at the Michigan MAA site under "Competitions and Programs".

In summary, I am here to serve the students, their teachers, and parents. Please join me in this wonderful community.

Sincerely,

Ada C. Dong, Ph.D.
