This is the official website to the UC Davis Spectra Chapter! Our organization is dedicated to providing a voice and community for all who feel marginalized within mathematics, as well as academia as a whole. We affirm the following:

As an institutional member of Spectra, we pledge to support and encourage LGBTQ+ individuals in mathematics, by working to create an inclusive and affirming environment that supports the well-being and professional development of LGBTQ+ mathematicians. We join the work creating a time when LGBTQ+ mathematicians are able to bring their whole selves to the mathematical community.

Rocknasium, Davis CA; 6-8pm

Have you noticed that there's a lot of math people who also climb? Queer Crush Norcal is a queer rock climbing org and hosts climbing nights at a variety of gyms. Historically, one gets held at Rocknasium every 4th Friday of the month with discounted day passes so we're planning on it! Email Tait at tjweicht@ucdavis.edu to see if he's got guest passes to get you in ;)

We welcome all interested UC Davis mathematics students and faculty to attend our events.

If you are interested in joining the Spectra chapter at UC Davis, we ask you fill out this form with your name, your position (undergrad, graduate, postdoc, faculty), and your department, whichever is relevant to you.
