1/2 On Wed. June 10, in solidarity with #BlackLivesMatter and #ShutDownSTEM, we paused our work. AMS Governance and Executive Staff met to build an action plan to account for our own Society’s history of racist behavior and to address systematic inequities in our math community.

Stephanie Badde of the Department of Psychology, Kasso Akochaye Okoudjou of the Department of Mathematics and Steve Cicala of the Department of Economics are all featured in the latest "Faculty Focus" from the School of Arts and Sciences. fal.cn/3a5yz

I know there's a lot going on that's troubling right now, but here's a little ray of sun. Christopher Jackson and I were awarded the Euler Book Prize for mathematics for human flourishing at #JMM2021. Chris was especially thrilled. Here's the citation and our personal responses. Thanks MAA

New blog post about the AMS task force report! American Mathematical Society Kasso Okoudjou Francis Su - mostly posting at 🦋 Brian Katz (BK) imagine paying 44 billion to ruin a place blogs.ams.org/inclusionexclu…

Which is why we need your help to publicize the #AMSTaskForce report: ams.org/about-us/under… Please share with colleagues & chair & discuss what you can do to make our profession fully inclusive. AMS is just one piece. Change begins with all of us growing in understanding. 11/

P.s. Co-chair Kasso Okoudjou and I are grateful to Task Force members who approached the work with such deep thoughtfulness and care, meeting weekly (or more) since June. And to all mathematicians who agreed to be interviewed. Dr. Adriana Salerno Domínguez 🇻🇪 wrote a reflection about the work here:

“ Ecoute plus souvent Les choses que les êtres, La voix du feu s'entend, Entends la voix de l'eau. Ecoute dans le vent Le buisson en sanglot: C'est le souffle des ancêtres. …” Birago DIOP.

Yesterday we announced the #acquisition of Global Technology Partners (GTP). In these series of videos, Dare Okoudjou explains the journey of how MFS Africa and GTP moved from an existing partnership to an acquisition…

We look forward to Dr. Kasso A. Okoudjou joining the Student Mathematical Library (STML) Editorial Committee in early 2024. Thank you for visiting the 2023 Fall Southeastern Sectional Meeting last weekend University of South Alabama! Learn about the STML series: ow.ly/ektN50PXH8V
