The objective of good math teaching should not be to "cover the curriculum" but to show students how to explore our fascinating and beautiful world through the lens of mathematics. We must change our focus in math education from a focus on a largely irrelevant and uninteresting set of learning objectives to a focus on making math relevant and engaging for students.

As a college president, I ask students and graduates what are we doing correctly and what can we improve upon. The typical responses to how we can improve are not surprising - more parking and more financial aid (often in that order). Lately the most common answer from recent graduates as to how we can improve has been surprising - more education about financial literacy and the practical aspects of living in today's world.
