The deadline for entries to the NSF “We Are Mathematics” Video Competition has been extended to February 28, 2019. This extension is due to the partial government shutdown. The NSF was closed but is now up and running again, and their activities are resuming as soon as possible.
See my January 9 blog post about this contest, for more information: https://blogs.ams.org/capitalcurrents/2019/01/09/enter-to-win-fame-and-fortune-we-are-mathematics-video-competition/
