Just noticed the "Great Job" award at enews that went to Jason Vargas for the Math Awareness Celebration he created at Spring Valley.Jeopardy competitions, games and cartoons were all part of activities that extended the learning well beyond any of the designated math classrooms and times.
Jason joins many colleges and universities who have been observing a celebration of the discipline since President Reagan's declaration in 1986. This year's site promotes the examination of statistics relative to this year's elections: http://www.mathaware.org/mam/08/.
For the math historians in the group: a list of themes from past years.
