A secondary goal of the BURG is to give students practice in sharing mathematics. In particular, our students write and present their research. Here we give some pointers on how to do those things

Writing

• So does Serre
• As does Terry Tao

Presenting

• Here is some advice on how to give a math talk
• and some on how to give a good computer talk
• and a checklist

Typesetting

• Here's a guide to getting started with LaTex at Bucknell
• Here's a general primer on LaTex
• An awesome page to help find the LaTex code for a symbol
• Here is the BURG technical report LaTex style file
