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.

9

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
