  • A Message from the North Central Section Executive Board

    •  

  • Award for Excellence in Teaching 2020

    • As chair of the 2020 NCS Teaching Award Committee, it gives me great pleasure to announce that Eric Egge (Carleton College) is the winner of the 2020 MAA-NCS Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics.  Both Eric’s colleagues and students describe his classes as welcoming, challenging and humorous.  They praise his ability to invite students to ask and answer deep mathematical question and credit Eric with helping to create a welcoming, participatory and inclusive atmosphere for student research in mathematics at Carleton.

    Eric Egge

    Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 outbreak, the North Central Section was forced to cancel their Spring, 2020, meeting, so Eric will be presented with his award at the Fall, 2020 NCS meeting.

    Sincerely,

    Dr. Sarah Jahn (Concordia University, St. Paul)

    Past President MAA-NCS
