It's about learning for the sake of learning, studying for the sake of studying. This group is about math for math's sake. The School of Mathematics was founded to cultivate a natural an …

All one needs is creativity, community, and a natural sense of fun and freedom. We meet at various parks in the Central and North Jersey areas. We …
