What is SUMO?
SUMO is the Stanford University Mathematical Organization. We are the by-students-for-students math club on campus. We host various events that are open to everyone: math majors and non-math majors, graduate and undergraduate students.
SUMO Activities
Speaker Series
We host regular talks by professors and graduate students.
SUMO Tutoring
We run drop-in tutoring and pset help sessions for students in Math 18-21, 51-53, 61-63CM/DM, and 104. Math is tough, but it's a little less tough together!
Drop-in hours: 6 - 10 pm in room 380-381T each Sunday through Tuesday, 10 pm to midnight on Zoom each Tuesday
Stanford Math Tournament
Each spring, we write and run a math competition for hundreds of high school students from the Bay Area and many more from around the world. We recently started to host a math competition for middle school students that takes place in the fall.
