A Brief History about the SIAM Gators.
SIAM Gators held its first SIAM Gators Conference in March 3rd to March 4th, 2004. This was, in fact, the first ever student organized conference for SIAM. It was unique in that it was run entirely by students in the SIAM student group with faculty acting only as advisors. The SIAM Gators hosted two additional conferences at the University of Florida in 2009 and in 2014.
