Penn State is having its first ever undergrad math conference this fall. It is in University Park, PA November 9-10, 2007. There is funding available for undergrads to attend.
For more details see below. I'll be there with as many undergrads as I can manage to bring.

Here is a link to an informal (yet lengthy) essay about my job search experience as a Mathematics Ph.D. Candidate. I describe just about all my ups and downs and uncertainties of the process. I hope some people will find this webpage helpful for their own future experiences.
-R. Philip Grizzard, Ph.D. (as of 4 days ago!)
