在过去的六年里，在拓扑和代数研究研讨会（USTARS）代表不足的学生每年四月举行，并已发展成为一个为期三天的活动，具有30分钟的研究讲座由研究生在拓扑和代数，早期职业教师研讨会，专业发展会议，并邀请本科生海报会议领域。它现在还包括两个杰出的研究生奖，分别授予拓扑学和代数学的研究生，以及一位早期职业教师演讲者介绍他们的数学之旅。在他们的研究生涯的各个阶段的研究生被邀请参加USTARS和讨论的技术和概念，他们正在探索作为生产他们的研究生论文的过程的一部分，反过来，从学生和教授在其他机构谁可以从不同的角度看待这个问题，获得新的见解他们的研究。此外，USTARS还提供了一个指导和潜在合作的场所。鼓励参加的教师帮助本科生和过渡研究生找到研究领域，并敦促学生与对他们的研究领域感兴趣的人见面和建立联系。但是，最重要的是，它为代表性不足的学生提供了一个地方，在一个支持性的环境中向不同的数学家群体展示他们的研究。
For the past six years, Underrepresented Students in Topology and Algebra Research Symposium (USTARS) has met every April and has grown into a three-day event featuring thirty-minute research talks given by graduate students in the fields of topology and algebra, an early career faculty workshop, a professional development session, and a poster session for invited undergraduates. It also now includes two Distinguished Graduate StudentAwards, given to a graduate student in each of topology and algebra, and an early-career faculty speaker presenting on their mathematical journey. Graduate students at all stages of their research careers are invited to attend USTARS and discuss techniques and concepts that they are exploring as part of the process of producing their graduate theses and, in turn, gain new insight into their research from students and professors at other institutions who may view the problem from a different perspective. Additionally, USTARS provides a venue for mentorship and potential collaboration. Faculty who attend are encouraged to help undergraduate and transitional graduate students find research areas and to urge students to meet and network with people interested in their areas of research. But, most of all, it provides a place for underrepresented students to showcase their research to a diverse group of mathematicians in a supportive environment.
