Mathematics
Chairperson: Gregory R. Buck
Professors: Gregory R. Buck, Peter W. Lindstrom, Donald L. Stancl.
The objectives of the Mathematics curriculum are: to develop the
attitude of mind required for efficient use and understanding of
mathematics; to enhance student ability to problem-solve with the
aid of quantitative models; to use technology to provide stimulating
opportunities for the student to experience mathematics
independently as a pattern-seeking science; and to provide sufficient
background for further studies in mathematics and related disciplines.
Requirements for the major include Mathematics 7-8,11,22,23, 31-
32,41-42,50, two mathematics or mathematics related electives, and
a senior-year mathematics project.

In a Catholic liberal arts college, the study of theology occupies an
essential position in the core curriculum. Generally speaking,
theological inquiry seeks an understanding of the mystery of God
and of the human condition. Specifically, the task of Christian
theology is to express meaningfully the revelation of Jesus, and to
examine and explain the faith of the Christian community in its
historical and contemporary context. Theology is equally concerned
with the practical implications of living a life of faith, particularly in
its moral, spiritual, and liturgical dimensions.
Students majoring in Theology complete 12 courses in
