The Mathematics and Computer Science Department at NMU is happy to invite you to participate in the 2014-2015 Problem of the Month Contest to have a little fun and get a little recognition. This activity is sponsored by the American Mathematical Society (AMS). The first student to submit a correct answer will be the winner for the month and receive a certificate in recognition of his/her participation. The top problem solver for the year will be invited to attend the US National Collegiate Mathematics Championship. It will be held July 26-29, 2017, in Chicago, Ill. during MathFest 2017!
