26 February 2008, Flint, Michigan:

I was delighted to greet almost 200 students and teachers from throughout Genesee County and beyond to the 41st Annual Math Field Day, organized by the University of Michigan-Flint Department of Mathematics, and sponsored by Rowe, Incorporated and Gabriel Roeder Smith & Company. Kudos to the faculty and staff of the Department of Mathematics for the great work they do in challenging the students and making math exciting. I enjoyed watching Professor Robert Bix explain a complex Venn diagram and receive applause from the students.

A special thank you goes to Grand Blanc High School, for 41 years of attendance. Congratulations to all attendees and award winners.
