ADVERTISING & INQUIRIES The Notices publishes situations wanted and classified advertising, and display advertising for publishers and academic or scientific organiza tions. Requests for information: Advertising: Wahlene Siconio Change of address or subscriptions: Eileen Linnane Book Order number 800-556-7774. Copyright© 1984 by the American Mathematical Society, Printed in the United States of America. Subscribers' changes of address should be reported well in advance to avoid disruption of service: address labels are prepared four to six weeks in advance of the date of mailing. Requests for a change of address should always include the member or subscriber code and preferably a copy of the entire mailing label. Members are reminded that U. S. Postal Service change-of address forms are not adequate for this purpose, since they make no provision for several important items of information which are essential for the AMS records. Suitable forms are published from time to time in the Notices (e.g. June 1984. page 427 ). Send change of address notices to the Society at Post Office Box 6248, Providence, RI 02940. [Notices is published eight times a year (January, February, April, June, August, October, November, December) by the American Mathematical Society at 201 Charles Street, Providence, RI 02904. Second class postage paid at Providence, RI and additional mailing offices. POSTMASTER: Send address change notices to Membership and Sales Department, American Mathematical Society, Post Office Box 6248, Providence, RI 02940.] Publication here of the Society's street address, and the other information in brackets above, is a technical requirement of the U. S. Postal Service. The street address should never be used by correspondents, unless they plan to deliver their messages by hand. Members are strongly urged to notify the Society themselves of address changes (in the manner described above), since (as explained above) reliance on the postal service change-of-address forms is liable to cause delays in processing such requests in the AMS office. Statement by AMS Committee on Employment and Educational Policy Current and prospective graduate students in mathematics and their advisors should be informed of employment prospects in the profession. Information on employment in mathematics can be found in the following articles: 27th Annual AMS Survey, First Report, November 1983 Notices, pages 720-747; Second Report, February 1984 Notices, pages 146-151; 28th Annual AMS Survey, First Report, November 1984 Notices, pages 744- 770. The 24th Annual Survey includes a Report on the 1980 AMS Nonacademic Salary Survey which may be found on pages 610-614 of the November 1980 issue of the Notices. Other items of interest concerning the mathematics profession are Toward Renewing a Threatened Resource: Findings and Recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee on Resources for the Mathematical Sciences, by Edward E. David, Jr., February 1984 Notices, pages 141-145; The Supply of Mathematical Researchers in the 1990s, April 1984 Notices, pages 271-277; and Renewing U.S. Mathematics: Critical Resource for the Future, known as the David Committee Report, August 1984 Notices, pages 435-466, continued in the October 1984 Notices, pages 570-616.

Weinstock, Audrey Terras chairman Robert J. Thompson The list of assistantships and fellowships on the following pages at universities includes 367 departments of mathematics, applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, and related math ematical disciplines; these represent 265 colleges and universities. Institutions in the United States are listed alphabetically by state, followed by Canadian institutions. The number following "Faculty" is the number of faculty members in the department who are full time employees in the institution and at least half-time in the department; the number following "Published" is the number of those reported who have published a technical paper or book in the last three years. The section on "Graduate Students" refers to the number of graduate students in the department who are full-time (including teaching assistants), full-time first year, and part-time. Information not supplied in any of these categories is indicated by a dash. Under the DEGREES AWARDED column the following terms have been used: Bachelor's by inst.
