The Bennett Competitions will run this semester (Spring 2021), in both Calculus and Differential Equations. However, because of the ongoing pandemic lockdown, the competitions will be somewhat modified from the usual pattern. 1. The exams will be held Tuesday, May 11. The Calculus competition will run from 3pm until 5pm, and the Linear Algebra competition will run from 6pm until 8pm (Austin time zone). 2. The Calculus competition is, as always, restricted to those finishing the Calculus sequence this semester (with M408D or M408M). However, since the Differential Equations competition was not held last Spring, all students who completed M427J at UT since June 2019 are eligible to compete this time. 3. The Student Honor Code at the University of Texas states, "As a student of The University of Texas at Austin, I shall abide by the core values of the University and uphold academic integrity." In the Bennett Competition, "academic integrity" means the participant is expected to submit only those ideas which he or she has devised independently, without the assistance of any other person, electronic tool, or academic resource (including books, papers, and web sites). 4. In order to be eligible to participate, students must send an email to rusin@math.utexas.edu by noon (Austin time) on May 10, indicating their interest. Their email must explicitly confirm their agreement to abide by the Honor Code. 5. Participants must log in to a Zoom session by the start of the exam, with a camera allowing a view of their work space. 6. Answers must be submitted via an email postmarked by the close of the competition. (Participants are encouraged to practice scanning and mailing multiple pages of mathematics, to be aware of how much time they should allow for this.) 7. All work necessary to derive an answer to a question must be submitted. (It is not necessary to submit attempted solutions that proved not to work.) Points will be awarded according to the accuracy and completeness of the solution.
