Student Opportunities

AMATYC Student Math League (SML)

Participation in the AMATYC SML is available in the Fall and Spring semesters. During these semesters, students may join in practice sessions and the competition to challenging themselves, add an extra-curricular activity to their resume, and meet other students who also have a passion for math by participating in the SML.

The SML competitions are based on pre-calculus level mathematics and there are individual and team prizes. The first-place individual in the nation (not the school, but the NATION) wins a scholarship to be used at a four-year college! The top three winners at SLCC will receive a gift card issued from the Math Department.

We are looking to hire Learning Assistants each semester for Math 0920, 0990, 1010, and 1050 and are in need of your help!  Interested parties will need to be interviewed prior to the start of each semester. 

We are looking for students who are:

• Friendly and work well with others.
• Good student that models good study habits.
• Hard-working (get assignments done on time and puts in the needed work to succeed).
• Good leader that takes the initiative to form study groups with other students in or out of class.
