\"\"The year is coming to a close, and for mathematicians that means that the Joint Mathematics Meetings<\/a> are just around the corner. This year, the meetings will be held in Baltimore from January 16-19, and we are expecting about 5000 people to descend on Charm City.<\/p>\n

I was recently told by someone that they were “eagerly awaiting” the inclusion\/exclusion roundup of diversity and inclusion events, talks, panels, receptions, happening at the meetings, similar to what we did for the last JMM<\/a>. Not ones to disappoint our readers, we are happy to comply.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Luckily, the AMS did their own roundup, available in this handy flier<\/a>.\u00a0 We combed through the schedule, and found a few additions. Just like last year, we chose either events that were explicitly about equity, inclusion, diversity, and social justice, or events promoted by groups that primarily support underrepresented mathematicians (like the\u00a0Association for Women in Mathematics<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0National Association of Mathematicians<\/a>). By \u201cevents\u201d we mean invited addresses, special sessions, panels, and social events. We are also only including the events not in the AMS flier (so please check that out too!).<\/p>\n

If you know of any events we may have missed, please share in the comments section below.<\/p>\n
