Welcome to Count Me In with Della and Deanna. Today we feature an exciting conversation with Susan D”Agostino, a writer and mathematician who recently authored How to Free Your Inner Mathematician:Notes on Mathematics and Life and who currently serves as the technology reporter for Inside Higher Ed.. Susan earned her undergraduate degree in anthropology from Bard College, a masters in science writing from Johns Hopkins University, and a PhD in mathematics from Dartmouth College. In this conversation, you will hear about the preschool experience that taught her to stand up for herself, her unusual path to mathematics, her book that has only curiosity as a prerequisite, her secret for taking on the next challenge, and why every mathematical proof is a story. So, please join us as we talk with Susan.

Welcome to Count Me In with Della and Deanna. Today we feature a thoughtful conversation with Dr. Edray Goins, Professor of mathematics at Pomona, College. Edray grew up in South Los Angeles and earned his undergraduate degrees in mathematics and physics at the California Institute of Technology and his PhD in mathematics from Stanford. He has held appointments at the National Security Agency, the Institute for Advanced Study, and the Max Planck Institute, among others. He invests most of his summers advancing underrepresented groups in mathematics. In this conversation, you will learn about how the confluence of extraordinary professors and forward thinking administrators can shape a student, how leadership opportunities in middle school can segue to leadership later and throughout life, and how Edray’s personal experiences inspire some very helpful advice for college students. . So, please join us as we talk with Edray.
