Introductory Meeting
by Cristina Negoita

This was the first meeting of the newly established PFMF program. We started with a personal introduction of active mathematics student participants in the PFF program. They were second year participants and shared their experiences so far in the program - outlining some of the good and bad parts of participating in a general PFF program versus a mathematics oriented one.

After their presentations, we moved on to introducing the organizers and participants in this PFMF program. A schedule of activities was reviewed and various organizational issues discussed. One of them was the conception of this web page - which we were all excited to take part in. Responsibilities were readily delegated and we agreed to meet again at the general PFF meeting which is taking place in two weeks. See you there!
