This is awesome! Do you guys plan to have anyone strictly in Mathematics? I see Science, Technology and Engineer well represented; I would love to see the math as well.
This thought stems (pun intended) from a recent discussion I had about gender equality in the field of Mathematics. Within the discussion, we hypothesizes that a majority of STEM education focused mainly on Engineering, Technology, and Science, while leaving Mathematics on the sidelines because it was presumed that “Math will just follow from the other subjects”. However, the pure exploration of mathematics is extremely different than mathematical formulas used for engineering practices. I think it would be good to show students what the frontier of mathematics looks like.
