Mentoring plays a huge role. In this talk\, we will discuss what mentoring is\, its impact and h ow some current narratives of mathematics are antithetical to the mentorin g needed to provide students with the best chance of succeeding in the dis cipline.\n\nSpeaker's bio: \nAris Winger is an associate professor of math ematics at Georgia Gwinnett College. His current work centers around creat ing spaces where marginalized groups feel a sense of belonging in mathemat ics and STEM. This mission has led him to co-authoring a book series Advoc ating for Students of Color in Mathematics and conducting numerous profess ional learning workshops and consulting around the United States\, working with educators and administrators at all levels. These experiences compe lled him to open a school\, Hybridge Academy\, a non-traditional accredite d school in the greater Atlanta area serving marginalized middle and high school students\, of which he is a Co-Founder and Co-Director. He currentl y serves as the Executive Director of the National Association of Mathemat icians. He has a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics from Howard University ( 1998)\, a Master's of Science in the Mathematical Sciences from Carnegie M ellon University (2000) and Doctorate of Philosophy in the Mathematical Sc iences from Carnegie Mellon University (2005).\n\n\nModerator's bio:\nAmba r Sengupta studied mathematics at Presidency College\, Calcutta\, and then obtained his PhD in Mathematics at Cornell University in 1990. After a po st-doctoral appointment at Princeton University\, he was on the faculty at LSU 1991-2016\, and since then has been at the University of Connecticut. Sengupta's mathematical work has spanned a wide range\, with much of the inspiration coming from mathematical physics. His recent interests include nonstandard analysis\, classical analysis\, and category-theoretic geomet ry.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/CompMath/37/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
