AMATYC is a professional organization for mathematics educators, and AMATYC events must serve these educators. AMATYC welcomes family members of its event attendees, as registered guests,
at these events, and recognizes that these events may be a positive experience for them.

To ensure that AMATYC events meet attendee expectations that include a pleasant and productive professional development activity, attendees are responsible for their guests’ behavior.

In particular, guests who are minors must be accompanied by the responsible attendee parent or guardian at all times. Attendee parents and guardians should take appropriate steps to ensure that their child’s behavior does not disrupt other attendees, or infringe on their rights to the quality professional development activity they expect and for which they have paid.

Any guest should never prevent access to a session for a professional attendee —particularly, in a case of limited seating availability, materials availability, etc., professional attendees have priority. Children should not normally be in sessions. Exceptions might include when the child is related to the presenter and the child might benefit by being present.

Event officials are empowered and instructed to enforce these rules by taking all actions necessary to control disruptive or nuisance behavior.

Many hotels provide recommendations for in-room child care for guests. Call the hotel as early as possible for service. Arrangements represent a contractual agreement between the individual and the child-care provider. AMATYC assumes no responsibility for the services rendered.

AMATYC is committed to serving all conference attendees who have disabilities and adheres to the guidelines set forth in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Attendees with disabilities requiring special accommodations should contact Beverly Vance before October 10, 2007, at 901.333.4643 or email at bvance@amatyc.org.
