Power the Proof

Thank you for your support of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at SCU!

Your donation helps fund:

• The Rick Scott Memorial Scholar Program, which honors our dear colleague and his commitment to undergraduate research by supporting student researchers during the summer. This past summer, Professors Glenn Appleby, Shamil Asgarli and I worked with Anissa Fernandez and Nicholas Xue on two graph theory problems.
• The Alexanderson-Pennello Fund, which last summer helped support seven students conducting original research under the guidance of our talented faculty. They studied topics in quantum computing, crystal graphs, formalizing proofs using LEAN, chromatic graph theory, influence maximization in social networks, Bell coloring graphs and the separation of binary strings. The fund also supported student attendance at conferences.
• The general MATH/CS gift fund, which helps build community and collaboration in our department by supporting student groups and activities such as the Association for Women in Mathematics, the MATH/CS Society, the First-year math contest, Hack for Humanity, and more.

Your continued involvement keeps these programs alive and enriches the experience of all 500 of our majors. Thank you!

- Tamsen McGinley, Department Chair
