This council is still evolving, having been formed in January 1997. At this point the function of the council is as follows.

  • The council, Lehigh mathematics majors, and Lehigh mathematics faculty engage in an electronic discussion group. To post a message to this discussion group, send e-mail to dmd1@lehigh.edu or the department chair with some indication that the message is to be posted to the alumni council discussion group. To be added to this discussion group, send e-mail to dmd1@lehigh.edu or the department chair stating your wish. Most messages which have posted to this discussion group will be archived on this web site. See below.
  • The council will form the mainstays of on-campus discussions of career opportunities. This can include annual Career Nights, such as those held in February 1996 and November 1996, and also less formal events. For example, if a council member is going to be on campus, we can arrange meetings with interested students and faculty.
  • The council can suggest topics for meetings relevant to the concern of the council, which is preparation of Lehigh mathematics majors for future employment.
  • This website serves as a focal point of the council. It will include links to websites relevant to the concern of the council. Suggestions of such websites should be communicated to Don Davis at dmd1@lehigh.edu or the department chair. This website will also include news of upcomng events.
