Check out this interview with Alex Moon, a graduate student at UWM who organized the SUFFERfest: Students United for Faster Enumerative Reasoning, August 2024. They share their advice on how graduate students can organize their own local workshops!



The SUFFERfest initiative sounds like a great model for grad students wanting to bring enumerative reasoning workshops to their own campuses. I'd love to see a template or toolkit for organizing similar events locally. https://aiphototemplate.com
The SUFFERfest sounds like a fantastic initiative. It's inspiring to see grad students taking the lead on enumerative reasoning workshops—I'd love to learn more about how you organized it. https://aibestfinder.com
The SUFFERfest interview with Alex Moon is exactly the kind of peer-led initiative that makes math communities stronger — organizing local workshops like that shows real initiative. I'd love to learn more about how they structured their sessions, and check out how others can replicate the model. https://qwenimaging.com
Alex Moon's SUFFERfest initiative at UWM is a fantastic model for grassroots math community building. The focus on enumerative reasoning as a shared, accessible practice is exactly what graduate programs need more of—I've been looking for a framework to adapt for my own department and would love to check out their workshop materials. https://fruit-love-island.com
