Rocky Mountain Section — Historical Materials

The national MAA was founded in 1915. Information about the history of the national MAA can be found at the national MAA website.
 

The Rocky Mountain Section was founded in 1917. Originally it consisted of the states of Wyoming and Colorado. Sometime in the late 1940s or early 1950s, institutions in Utah also began to be included. These were split off in 1975 as the Intermountain Section. (See the history page of the Intermountain Section for a brief description of the split.) Also sometime in the 1950s, institutions in the western part of South Dakota began to be included, and are still part of the section.


Summary of RMS historical materials on the Section Website:

  • Narrative History (Wm. Ramaley, c. 1996)
  • Narrative History (David Ballew, c. 1985)
  • Narrative History (David Ballew, c. 1986)
  • Meeting reports 1917–1981 published in the American Mathematical Monthly
  • Scanned copies of section newsletters 1982–1999.
  • Miscellaneous scanned documents (letters, financial reports, executive committee minutes, etc.)
  • Summary of newsletters 1999–2016
  • Links to complete newsletters 1999–2016
  • List of Past Section Meetings
  • List of Past Section Officers

It is hoped that those with the time, energy, and interest can further study these materials and contribute to understanding the history of our section.
