Roeling Conference Archive
Information about recent Lloyd Roeling UL Lafayette Mathematics Conferences is provided below. Please select a conference archive from the following list.
- Because we are hosting the SIAM Texas/Louisiana Sectional Meeting 3-5 November 2023, there will not be a 2023 Roeling Conference. The 2024 Roeling Conference (Topology) will be held 15-17 March 2024.
- Due to the pandemic, there were no Roeling Conferences in 2020, 2021, and 2022. The 2022 Roeling Conference was replaced by the October 2022 ICMA-VIII conference.
