@BiffBrown : You need to be encouraging current and future Emory students to participate in it. I think a lot more used to. In fact I was mentored by some people who did (these folks were pretty motivated and brilliant. They actually were math or physics majors but also took freshman ochem and stuff which is how I got to know them, as my TA). One of the Goldwater winners in math. I am thinking it was Noam) did the Budapest semesters which I heard is an awesome opportunity for those truly interested in and strong at math. I think the presence of Ken Ono has boosted the profile of the math program among undergraduates and prospective undergraduates (as he hosts one of the best REU programs for college and HS students). Now if only it would get more than just the very top student(s) active in what happens in that dept. Like I know some schools with very big math communities (which Emory does have if you count joint and double majors) have integration competitions and all types of things that are for or include undergraduates. It would be nice if they had a more visible social and intellectual community like chemistry and neuroscience for example.
