Practices usually consist of working on old ARML contests.
Practices will be held in Chandler-Ullman Hall, with room 218 being the gathering point. The main entrance is on the west side, but there is a lower entrance on the north side, which can be used for people being dropped off. To get there by car, you must carefully spot a long driveway off Taylor St. See the map referenced below. When you turn up Taylor St off Packer, you pass the Power Plant and then a small parking lot, and then immediately turn right, before you get to the Physics Bldg. It looks like there are parking places on the north side of Chandler, but no one is allowed to use them, ever.
There is some free parking on the streets. Those are city meters which are free on Sundays. Here is a map of the adjacent streets (Packer, Vine, Morton, Webster, and Brodhead) which have lots of meters, many of which should be unoccupied on Sunday afternoon. You are not allowed to park in any Staff lot. The three parking garages have limited visitor parking, using an App, or cash in the one on Brodhead or credit card in the one on Packer.
A link to solutions to all problems considered during the practice will be announced at the end of practice. Team members are expected to study those solutions during the following week, in order to obtain maximum benefit from the practice. We spend very little time during practice in actual instruction regarding the mathematics of the problems.
Practices begin and end promptly. Try to arrive early, especially if you wish to socialize with your teammates. A lounge is provided for parents who drive their children to practice.
