Our annual GAANN Day is jointly organized by the Mathematics Department and the Graduate School, and it includes some research presentations by our current GAANN fellows, mentoring presentations by our invited guests, and panel discussions. Some faculty mentors from other institutions as well as some prospective GAANN fellows are invited. We may organize a reception and dinner for our current GAANN fellows and a few invited visitors in the evening prior to our GAANN Day.
