According to Dr. Brian Haile, Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, the generosity of Northwest donors has allowed Mathematics and Statistics to:
- Provide funding for students to attend and present at professional conferences in Columbia and Springfield, Missouri during the last year.
- Provide funding for students to prepare for and compete in the Collegiate Mathematics competition that takes place at the same time as the Missouri MAA section meeting, held in Springfield, MO last March.
- Make available certain manipulatives, software, special books and other material to support the development of our students in the classroom or aid some of our graduates develop their own toolkit – in particular our Math Education graduates as they develop their own classroom into an engaging center for learning.
- Plan and prepare for a competition and presentations at a conference in Liberty, Missouri during early April, 2024.
