The Suncoast Region of the Florida Section of the Mathematical Association of America was founded in 1974 to serve the west central region of Florida. The primary concern of the Region is undergraduate mathematics education, although the Region is concerned with virtually all issues of mathematics education, research, and applications. The Suncoast Region Coordinator is David Kerr. There is also an MAA Florida Suncoast Regional Newsletter.

The Mathematical Association of America is one of the major organizations in this country concerned with mathematics. Here are some links to mathematics organizations:

• The American Mathematical Society is concerned primarily with graduate education and research in the USA.
• The Association for Computing Machinery is a broad-based society concerned with all aspects of computing.
• The Australian Mathematical Society is concerned with mathematics in Australia.
• The Canadian Mathematical Society is concerned with mathematics in Canada.
• The European Mathematical Society is concerned with mathematics in Europe.
• The International Mathematics Union is an international organization on mathematics.
• The Mathematical Association of America is primarily concerned with undergraduate mathematics education in the USA.
• The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics is concerned with elementary and secondary mathematics education in the USA.

The XXXIth Meeting of the Suncoast Region of the Florida Section of the MAA will meet at Hillsborough Community College in Brandon on Friday, December 3, 2006.
