The Belmont University mathematics and computer science club is a joint Student Chapter of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) and Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The MAA and ACM are two of the most prominent professional organizations in mathematics and computer science, respectively.

Our MAA/ACM chapter meets regularly throughout the semester. Each meeting has time for snacks, announcements, and discussion. Sometimes we play a game, other times we have a mini-lecture by a student or professor, but we always have fun! MAA/ACM also sponsors a very popular Game Day each semester at which faculty and students come together to play board games, card games, and video games.

Finally, MAA/ACM performs community service, such as tutoring or helping out with Belmont's Family Literacy Day, each year.

Six members of Belmont's MAA/ACM Club participated in the 20th anniversary of Hands On Nashville's Day of Service on September 24th. The group worked at Charlotte Park Elementary School painting, spreading mulch and planting flowers.

The 2010 ACM Mid-Southeast Conference was held in Gatlinburg, TN on November 11-12, 2010.  Belmont senior Cameron Behar gave a presentation on "Visualizing Graphs through Software".  Dr. William Hooper and Dr. Joyce Crowell gave a talk titled "An Applet Package for CS0".  

Cameron's presentation earned him Honorable Mention honors.  His presentation was fourth out of the 23 undergraduate student presentations from institutions such as University of Alabama, Austin Peay, UT Martin, Tennessee Tech, Furman University, East TN State, Jackson State, Columbus State, Samford University, and MTSU.
