The MAA is pleased that you have joined us in Cincinnati for the math event of the summer. What are my favorite things to do at MAA MathFest? Attend the Invited Addresses! When I think back on prior MAA MathFest meetings, the Invited Addresses are the talks that I still remember and that have renewed my excitement for mathematics. This year will continue that tradition. We have excellent speakers presenting on a variety of exciting topics. If you see an Invited Address title that looks interesting, go to that talk. It will be worth it. Remember to attend the three 20-minute talks given by the MAA Adler Teaching Award winners on Friday afternoon. Jumpstart your passion for teaching and come hear these great educators share their TABLE OF CONTENTS insights on teaching, connecting with students, and the answer to “life, the universe and everything” (okay, maybe they won’t talk about 3 EARLE RAYMOND HEDRICK LECTURE SERIES the last item, but I am sure they will give inspiring and motivating presentations). -

This transcript was exported on Dec 26, 2019 - view latest version here. Evelyn Lamb: 00:11 Welcome to the Lathisms podcast. I'm your host, Evelyn Lamb. In each episode we invite a Hispanic or Latinx mathematician to share their journey in mathematics. Today I'm very happy to be talking with Carrie Diaz Eaton. Thanks so much for joining me. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself? Carrie Diaz Eaton: 00:28 Thanks, Evelyn, for inviting me. I am currently an Associate Professor of Digital and Computational Studies at Bates College, which is a small liberal arts college in Maine. I have been at Bates for one year, starting in 2018, but before that I was an Assistant, and then Associate Professor, at Unity College. It's just a small environmental college. Evelyn Lamb: 00:53 Oh, I don't think I've heard of Unity before. Where is that? Carrie Diaz Eaton: 00:56 That is also in Maine. It's a college that has all majors related in some way to the environment. Evelyn Lamb: 01:05 Interesting. And so you said you were Professor of Digital and Computational Studies. Is that separate from the math department? Carrie Diaz Eaton: 01:12 Yes, it is separate. So I've always actually been a mathematician in somebody else's department. So when I was at Unity College, I was in a center, which is like a department, for biology and marine biology. Now I'm in a department that focuses somewhat on computer science, but is a little bit more broad and interdisciplinary than that.
