Nichols-Barrer, however, questions the need fora class like Math 55. He says a controversycurrently surrounds the choice students can makebetween Math 55 and 100-level courses, such as the122/123 track (first-year algebra), which meets atthe same time as Math...
...mile record would be 3:11.29. Even so hyperthyroid a measure as the Dow Jones industrial average would leap ahead to the vicinity of 10,100. In a sport whose progress is characteristically Darwinian in both style and speed, McGwire not only collapsed the decades, he invented a new algebra...
...assume that mathematics as we know it is still valid within Memorial Hall. We must look to alternate explanations for the phenomenon. Assistant Professor of Mathematics Mike J. Nakamaye, who teaches Math 25a: "Honors Advanced Calculus and Linear Algebra," has put forward one theory. "Measurements of fat content in Annenberg food undoubtedly rest on faulty linear approximation techniques," he said in an e-mail message. "To the extent that the food at Annenberg is everywhere homogeneous and nowhere differentiable, linear approximations are doomed to failure...
