I made it to Mount Holyoke for #MathPath 2025! First day is good so far; my Math and Music minicourse students heard some Leonard Bernstein and J.S. Bach and learned about equivalence relations.

I spent four weeks this summer at math camp with 11-14 year olds: two weeks at Camp Conway, and two weeks at MathPath. I taught algorithms (x2), dynamical systems, graph coloring, math of climate, and probability & Bayesian stats. Two posts about how it went:

First week done ✅

And a great talk from Frank Morgan and high school student Eve Parrott whose work can be found here:

She also mentioned a program for middle school students called MathPath as meaningful:

Something to keep in mind!

Non-grading news: Here's an article about MathPath, a middle school summer math camp that I help run. Check it out!

Oh, you're at MathPath? I took this year off to recharge a bit, but should be back next year, especially if we go back to Kansas City.

The way to have a really busy MathPath conferencing time is to ask a question that class didn't quite prepare the campers for, whoops

Like I said at the end of the MathPath post, it was so neat to get to teach so many different parts of the mathematical sciences that have been important to me. I love the teaching I do at work, but it's rarely this full cross-section.

It's time to ditch "DEI". Changing times require changed tactics.

✅ Let go of our need to be right over persuasive.
✅ Be explicit and specific about what we're doing.
✅ Take an initiative-based risk management approach.

Language evolves. And "#DEI" has evolved into a polarizing, non-specific, unhelpful term that stands in the way of potential progress.

It's time we move past unhelpful language and embrace a more mature approach to #equity work in organizations.

At the end of MathPath, I told the campers that there are so many ways to love and do math, that it's allowed to change over time. It's okay to leave and come back, to combine math with different things.

I'm not sure that means anything to them yet, but I hope that the ones who need it heard it.

A tree implies branches, which would be the replies... the main sequence of posts could be a path? A mathpath?
