CHAIRMAN FAULKNER: I ask the person who's
2
running the audio if it is true that I have to hold
3
this button down while I'm speaking?
4
AUDIO TECHNICIAN: Yes.
5
CHAIRMAN FAULKNER: It is true, okay, and
6
that means, I believe, that all of the speakers and
7
everyone here at the panel will, when you do speak,
8
have to hold the button down. Okay.

Okay, I'm Larry Faulkner. I'm chair of
10
the National Math Panel. Vice-Chair, Camilla Benbow
11
is next to me here. And we want to welcome everyone
12
in the audience to this open session of the National
13
Math Panel.
14
I'd like to begin by thanking the Illinois
15
Math and Science Academy for hosting this open
16
session. This is the sixth meeting of the National
17
Math Panel. We are holding these meetings across the
18
country in various locations, geographically
19
distributed, but we've tried pretty consistently to
20
associate the meetings of the Math Panel with
21
institutions in locales that symbolize high
22
achievement in the academic enterprise. The Illinois
23
Math and Science Academy certainly does symbolize
24
that.
25
Let me indicate that we have signing
