Representatives from Elizabeth City State University recently traveled to North Carolina State University (NCSU) for the Infinite Possibilities Conference (IPC) national conference. This conference was hosted by Building Diversity in Science (BDIS), North Carolina State University (NCSU), and The Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute (SAMSI) in Raleigh, North Carolina.

African-American, Hispanic/Latina, and American Indian women have been traditionally underrepresented in the field of mathematics. The purpose of this conference was to address race/ethnicity and gender in the context of mathematics during one conference. Activities included:

• Professional development workshop series
• Panel discussion on graduate studies in mathematics
• Research talks given by professionals
• Student poster sessions
• Special activities for high school students
• Roundtable discussions on experiences with mathematics
• And an awards banquet in honor of the late Dr. Etta Z. Falconer
