CLASS INFORMATION Spring 2010 My: [schedule] MATH 122 R1 & R2 [Syllabus] |
The Last Lecture: Randy Pausch Although John F. Kennedy is talking about going to the moon, this could easily apply to “Why go to college, or why be a math major…” …not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, … If he [a teacher] is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind. -Kahlil Gilbran, The Prophet The astronomer may speak to you of his understanding of space, but he cannot give you his understanding. -Kahlil Gilbran, The Prophet I am not a teacher but an awakener. - Robert Frost By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third, by experience, which is the bitterest. -Confucius, philosopher and teacher Give me a fruitful error any time, full of seeds, bursting with its own corrections. You can keep your sterile truth for yourself. ~Vilfredo Pareto When the student is ready, the master appears. ~Buddhist Proverb Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. ~Kurt Vonnegut, Jr

Wylie and the Wild West
My brother's friend Glenn and his study group (which included my brother) made songs about what they were studying in their high school physic class...
His brother Eric fingers Ray is/was a Math Teacher ... in Polsen, Montana last I heard
His other brother was my vet when I was in grad school... until he went off to be a large animal vet.
