CALCULUS
BEE
In honor of April being Mathematics Awareness Month, the Department of Computer
Science, Mathematics, and Physics is sponsoring a Calculus Bee. It is a
two-part event consisting of a written exam and a countdown round. The written
exam consists of questions over material from first semester calculus. A
contestant's score on the written exam determines his/her ranking for the
countdown round. Only the top twenty
ranked contestants will proceed to the Countdown Round. The
countdown round is a head-to-head competition, beginning with the 19th and 20th
ranked contestants. The first contestant to answer two questions correctly goes
on to compete against the next highest ranked contestant. This continues until
all top twenty contestants have competed. It is very beneficial to do well on
the written exam so that you will be ranked higher and therefore have to
compete less in the countdown round. (questions? contact Dr. Kevin Anderson)
