Hendrix-Rhodes-Sewanee Undergraduate Symposium
 

Hendrix College, Rhodes College, and the University of the South (Sewanee) hold a symposium late each spring for students to present undergraduate research in mathematics and computer science. Because of their respective locations, the symposium occurs at Rhodes every other years, and it alternates between Hendrix and Sewanee for the other years. The symposium started in 1978.
