Student Recognition Grants

Rocky Mountain Section

Mathematical Association of America

The Rocky Mountain Section of the Mathematical Association of America will set aside $500 every calendar year. From these monies, the Section will make grants for the purpose of recognizing superior achievement in mathematics on the part of high school students whose school districts, or other appropriate political subdivisions, substantially intersect the geographic region served by the Section.

Proposals for such grants must

1. originate from a member of the Rocky Mountain Section of the Mathematical Association of America on behalf of an agency, institution, or organization whose stated purposes are consistent with recognizing or encouraging superior academic achievement at the high school level;

2. be in the hands of the Secretary of the Rocky Mountain Section no later than April 2 of the year in which the proposed recognition is to be made;

3. include the criteria under which superior achievement in mathematics is to be recognized, together with the time and the manner of such recognition;

4. report, insofar as possible at the time of the proposal, other potential sources of support together with proposals or requests made or intended; and

5. be limited to a maximum amount of $150.

The Executive Committee of the Rocky Mountain Section will review all proposals for grants under this policy and will make such grants as, in its sole judgment, it deems proper. It will announce its decisions no later than the Annual Business Meeting of the Section.

Monies not expended during any particular year shall revert to the Section’s general fund.
