Tea-Time
Directly following the MCLS, the Math Club room is open for free tea and cookies every Monday at 17:30.

Open House Sushi Luncheons
Yes, that's right -- more free food! Kicking off every winter semester, the Math Club holds an open house featuring lots of complimentary sushi, veggie platters, faces new and old, and a good way to get introduced to the Club. The most recent one was on September 17, 2009 at 13:00.

Pub Nights
Happining on a monthly basis, Math Club storms an arbitrarily-chosen member of the set of local pubs (typically Koerner's). Good times, good math, bzzr, yam fries, and pub games. 19+, bring your ID.

Conquer the seas and vanquish the wall with the Math Club! Announcements for intramural opportunities are posted to our mailing list.

Year End Formal
