This course is designed to show some of the essence and quality of mathematics, and to enhance precision in the evaluation and expression of ideas, thereby developing a student's quantitative reasoning skills. It is recommended primarily for students who do not plan to major in a math- related field but may also be of interest to others. Course content may include topics from numeration systems, logic, geometry, probability, statistics, algebraic modeling, number theory, consumer mathematics, graph theory, voting and apportionment, and perhaps others; concepts of contemporary mathematics may be covered. Emphasis is placed on the deductive process.Usually HeldMon Wed 1:00pm–2:20pm, Mon Wed 1:30pm–2:20pm, Mon Wed 10:30am–11:20am, Mon Wed 11:30am–12:50pm
