School Science and Mathematics Recognizes Ashland University PSG


In the January 2018 issue of School Science and Mathematics, the Ashland University Problem Solving Group received credit for submitting a correct solution to Problem 5458. Emily Law was the primary author of the solution.

The editor incorrectly gave the credit to "The Honors Students at Ashland University," but on a positive note wrote, "But then The Honors Students at Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio upped the ante by finding additional ordered pairs..."

Congratulations to the Problem Solving Group.
