We will discuss the Mathematical Modeling Contest~(MCM) that will take place February 5-February 9. Teams consist of at most three students. It would be nice if we could form at least two teams. Jacob Hempel and Yanxi Li who competed last year for UK will hopefully be attending the meeting. If you plan on competing please make arrangements with your professors for any assignments/exams that might be due during the contest. Graduate Students, George Lytle and Fouche Smith will also be present to help assist in the discussion. To get you in the right mind set for the competition please read Secrets of the Mathematical Contest in Modeling, and for other articles about the MCM, check out the MCM Resource page.
Other things that we might discuss:

·  Spring Speakers. So far we have confirmation from Wesley Hough, Luis Sordo Viera, Rafael Gonzolez D'Leon. We have not heard from Katherine Thompson or Derek Eggers.

·  2015 Kentucky Section Annual Meeting, March 27-28 at Morehead State University
