Last week, I attended the first informational meeting of the ACDIS Security Studies Group. They're pretty interesting - they cover all kinds of security, from the environment to computing. Many members are particularly interested in nuclear security. They invite experts on various kinds of security to come and speak. They also manage a blog and a reviewed journal-like publication, both of which accept student submissions.
A handful of math contests are held at the University. Looking at some sample problems, these competitions are far more challenging than ones I've done previously, but there are training sessions. Perhaps I'll attend some of those and see if I can learn to handle problems at this level.
The Navigators are starting up their weekly studies next week. The freshman men's group apparently meet at 9 PM on Mondays, which is pretty late, but I'll try it to see if it's manageable.
