At 10 a.m., Judy Holdener, Ph.D., associate professor of mathematics at Kenyon College, will present “Spiraling Seashell Surfaces.”

At 11 a.m., mathematical amusements and door prizes will take place in the AMU atrium and the Malcolm Dining Hall of the Gardner Fine Arts Pavilion.

At 1 p.m., Holdener will present “Spiraling Primes and Primary Spirals” in the AMU Multi-Purpose Room.

Holdener’s research interests include algebra, number theory and dynamical systems, and she has been published in a variety of mathematical journals. Holdener was awarded Instructor of the Year and the Tony M. Johnson Excellence in Teaching Award from the Air Force Academy, as well as several other awards.
