Welcome!

Mathematics is the language of science, providing a framework for analyzing the world by abstracting from our observations that which is essential to the question at hand. An understanding of mathematics gives its owner a powerful approach to solving problems through organization, simplification and abstraction. This approach often leads to solutions and techniques of great beauty, independent of their application, and it is the aim of the Department of Mathematics to furnish its majors and general studies students with some of this understanding and an appreciation of this beauty.

Math Lab

The Math Lab is located in Room 306 in the Sullivan Building (ext. 6348). One half of the lab consists of a tutoring section where students can meet to work on assignments or study with their classmates.
