Doing math and more BEAM style

The birds are chirping, the sun is out, and math is in the air — and on these really cool white boards (see pictures below)!

As week one winds down at Harvey Mudd College, the students at BEAM are not just adjusting but thriving! Everyday our young mathematicians are solving big math problems in unique ways.

Hot topics this week were completing their first proof Number Theory and learning how to find patterns with numbers in a Problem Solving Class. Students are eager to see the beautiful challenges that each new class brings.

BEAM Summer Away begins in California

BEAM Summer Away California at Harvey Mudd College is off and running!

On Sunday, there was an excited energy as counselors and staff got to know students and their families. Next on our to-do list were dorm tours. Students were eager to pick out their bunk beds and unpack. Then, students explored the campus, reconnected with BEAM friends from last summer, and started making new friends. 

Last, but definitely not least, the Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament kicked off with faculty and staff joining in!

Next up, the marvelous world of mathematics … Stay tuned to learn more!
