Every year I write a column for Math Awareness Month @MathAware and send it to a dozen newspapers. I generally get 1-2 hits per year. Would be nice if every mathematician did this to let the world know how math plays a role in people's lives.

It's #MathStatMonth and Spring (here). As flowers and trees blossom keep your eyes peeled. Can you find Fibonacci patterns in nature? These are just some of the patterns mathematicians look for. Order a free AMS poster to get inspired, at bit.ly/2n158Fm

April 1 means it's #MathStatMonth (that's not an April Fool's Joke!). Start it off by learning a bit about Muḥammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, whose name gave us “algorithm” and whose work gave us algebra. blogs.ams.org/phdplus/2019/0…
