You might know some of the people behind the scenes of the competition, but we would still like to bring them to your attention and formally thank them. We apologize in advance if we do not mention all of the significant contributions to the competition.

The examination committee works diligently behind the scenes preparing Part I and Part II: Patrick Pan (SVSU, Chair), Akalu Tefera (GVSU), Lazaros Kikas (UDM) and Ada Cheng (Kettering U). They patiently work with the Director and the reports of the various reviewers, who in turn deserve a great deal of thanks, though they are too numerous to mention here. The examination committee also provides the Director with a valuable sounding board and advisory group.

The volunteers from various institutions around the state who attended Grading Day did a wonderful job. They are listed on the MMPC Web site (www.math.oakland.edu/main/mmpc/index.html).

The MMPC supervisors at the participating schools are essential, collecting information and organizing participants, keeping timely and frequent contact with the Director. If you know a supervisor at a participating school, thank them, and if you have any contacts in your local high schools encourage them to consider participating if they do not already do so.
