Under Construction Articles Potsdam State's Math Program Praised in Speech to National Groups College carves biggest piece of mathematics students' pi Quotes from past graduates Potsdam State's Math Program Praised in Speech to National Groups Potsdam State University College's math program, lauded in the past, is in the national spotlight again for its effectiveness. In a recent speech to a joint meeting of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) and the American Mathematical Society, former MAA President Leonard Gillman singled out Potsdam College's program, along with a few others across the country, as one that helps students succeed in mathematics. Mr. Gillman's comments on the programs are included in the latest issue of "Focus," the MAA's newsletter. His remarks, delivered at the January meeting in Kentucky as his retirement address, were reprinted in an article titled "Teaching Programs That Work." ... ... Mr. Gillman praised the unique individualized approach used by Potsdam math professors, such as speaking directly to students and stressing strengths. "The predominant spirit is the culture of success: continual encouragement, recognition of every accomplishment, successful role models honors students, BA-MA students, graduates enough success to develop self-esteem, enough time to develop intellectually, recognition of one's achievement and the belief that the study is worthwhile," he said.

Quotes On Mathematics A mathematical truth is neither simple nor complicated in itself, it is. - Emile Lemoine The science of Pure Mathematics, in its modern developments, may claim to be the most original creation of the human spirit - A. N. Whitehead A mathematician who is not also a poet will never be a complete mathematician. - Karl Weierstrass I have heard myself accused of being an opponent, an enemy of mathematics, which no one can value more highly than I, for it accomplishes the very thing whose achievement has been denied me. - Goethe Mathematicians are like lovers... Grant a mathematician the least principle, and he will draw from it a consequence which you must also grant him, and from this consequence another. - Fontenelle It is easier to square a circle than to get round a mathematician. - Augustus De Morgan I regret that it has been necessary for me in this lecture to administer such a large dose of four-dimensional geometry. I do not apologize, because I am really not responsible for the fact that nature in its most fundamental aspect is four-dimensional. Things are what they are. - A. N. Whitehead Numbers rule the Universe. - Pythagoras

68. Mathematical Quotations If you think math is boring, then you haven't seen all mathematics has to offer NoteThese quotes are only a subset of those contained on the Furman University http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/7773/quotes.html

Mathematical Quotations - A - - B - - C - - D - ... - W - A return to top of page Adams, Douglas (1952 - ) Bistromathics itself is simply a revolutionary new way of understanding the behavior of numbers. Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute but depended on the observer's movement in space, and that time was not an absolute, but depended on the observer's movement in time, so it is now realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer's movement in restaurants. Life, the Universe and Everything. New York: Harmony Books, 1982. Adams, Douglas (1952 - ) The first nonabsolute number is the number of people for whom the table is reserved. This will vary during the course of the first three telephone calls to the restaurant, and then bear no apparent relation to the number of people who actually turn up, or to the number of people who subsequently join them after the show/match/party/gig, or to the number of people who leave when they see who else has turned up. The second nonabsolute number is the given time of arrival, which is now known to be one of the most bizarre of mathematical concepts, a recipriversexcluson, a number whose existence can only be defined as being anything other than itself. In other words, the given time of arrival is the one moment of time at which it is impossible that any member of the party will arrive. Recipriversexclusons now play a vital part in many branches of math, including statistics and accountancy and also form the basic equations used to engineer the Somebody Else's Problem field.

"This book is worse than toilet paper." "This is a game people play, that's how they get tenure." "You could define a left-hand derivative at the endpoints, but that's sort of crap." "We're three weeks into the course, we've covered 3/4 of the material, so we can go have a beer party." "These handouts I give you, they are not souvenirs." "This came by brain-warp." "You can check this in the privacy in your own home." "I'm postponing all the difficulties until the next term." "We assume you don't know anything." "Is a proposition better than a lemma or worse than a lemma? I don't know." "[Fermat] may have been short, but I don't want to comment on his stature." "Don't ask me anything about homology, I know nothing about homology." "If you don't like it, you can forget it." "I reserve the right to not do a problem because it's too boring." "Sometimes, dirty proofs are better because one understands them better."

72. Mathematical Remarks Each progress in mathematics is based on the discovery of stronger tools and easiermethods, which at the time makes it easier to understand earlier methods. http://www.math.hmc.edu/~jacobsen/quotes.html

Each progress in mathematics is based on the discovery of stronger tools and easier methods, which at the time makes it easier to understand earlier methods. By making these stronger tools and easier methods his own, it is possible for the individual researcher to orientate himself in the different branches of mathematics. The organic unity of mathematics is inherent in the nature of this science, for mathematics is the foundation of all exact knowledge of natural phenomena. David Hilbert (1900 Paris Lecture) Technical skill is mastery of complexity while creativity is mastery of simplicity. E. C. Zeeman (note that this quote applies equally well to music and mathematics). Although it may be fashionable to acknowledge that everything is connected to everything else in principle, some things are more tightly connected to each other than to all the rest. Such a little knot of causal interactions goes by the name of a system. Art Winfree Mathematics is not a deductive science - that's a cliché. When you try to prove a theorem, you don't just list the hypotheses, and then start to reason. What you do is trial and error, experimentation and guesswork. Paul Halmos Cauchy is mad and there is nothing that can be done about him, although, right now, he is the only one who knows how mathematics should be done.

Logan College Mathematics Award 1995 Bill Bird Senior in Mathematics Education Southern Illinois University, Carbondale John A. Logan College Mathematics Award 1999 "I learned a lot from the professors in John A. Logan's Math Department. Their professors are great teachers, and they are accessible with flexible office hours. They not only helped me with questions about the math courses, but provided me with valuable guidance on good courses to take to meet my goal to be a high school math teacher. Thanks to their inspiration I'm one semester away from completing my goal to be a certified teacher of mathematics in Illinois! " Jennifer Jeter Senior in Mathematics Education Southern Illinois University, Carbondale John A. Logan College Mathematcis Award 2000 "The Mathematics department at John A. Logan College is outstanding. The instructors are always willing to go the extra mile to help students understand the material. The department did an excellent job of preparing me for the transition to a four-year university. I would highly recommend that anyone who is pursuing a degree related to mathematics consider attending John A. Logan College."
