Diversity in Mathematics

Diversity in Mathematics is meant to provide a method for interjecting diversity easily into your classroom. Representation matters, so introducing a diverse mathematician at the beginning of each class or chapter can not only heighten visibility, but hopefully provide powerful role models for students of diverse backgrounds.
