Exploring Mathematics — Cal
State Fullerton’s Project MISS (Mathematics Intensive Summer
Session) kicks off its 15th year July 6 with algebra II and precalculus
programs for 10th- and 11th-graders from Orange County and surrounding
communities. The four-week program was created by David L. Pagni,
professor of mathematics, to address the needs of female high school
students seeking additional assistance in mathematics, as well as
to encourage young women to pursue careers in science and mathematics.
The program offers six hours of study each day, as well as experiences
in college life and opportunities to explore career options. One
of this year’s sessions is for high school boys.
