Alumni on the move and getting noticed, kudos, what's happening in math, newly named scholarships, and in memoriam.
We’ve had an exciting start to the fall term here in the Faculty of Mathematics.
When Russell Hiscock (BMath ’75) speaks to current students about his time at Waterloo, he tells them about having to wait in line in the Red Room, punch card in hand, to test a small snippet of code. Or about not being able to afford a calculator until his third year and having to do complex calculations, like standard deviation, manually.
