Moody's Mega Math Challenge
Moody's Mega Math (M³) Challenge is an applied mathematics modeling contest open to high schools along the entire East Coast, from Maine to Florida. It is sponsored by The Moody's Foundation (a charity of Moody's rating agency) based in New York City and organized by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) based in Philadelphia. The M³ Challenge awards $115,000 in scholarship prizes each year to the top teams. An additional incentive is the recognition that the winning teams receive. The winning paper from 2008 was published in the College Mathematics Journal and a representative from High Tech's team appeared on FOX Business Channel.

Famous quotes containing the words moody and/or challenge:
“Without, the frost, the blinding snow,
The storm-wind’s moody madness—
Within, the firelight’s ruddy glow,
And childhood’s nest of gladness.
The magic words shall hold thee fast:
Thou shalt not heed the raving blast.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“She might have been old once and now, miraculously, young again—but with the memory of that other life intact. She seemed to know the world down there in the dark hall and beyond for what it was. Yet knowing, she still longed to leave this safe, sunlit place at the top of the house for the challenge there.”
—Paule Marshall (b. 1929)
