Wayward Relationships and Improper Fractions Mathematics has always drawn the attention of thought- ful men. The French philosopher Rene Descartes, inventor of analytic geometry, and the poet Omar Khayyam, mathe- matician at the royal court of Persia, may have had little else in common, but the reflective natures of both men led them into the study of mathematics. At Glynn Academy the student learns to appreciate the beauty of the number system as well as the practical value of mathematics. Students gain an understanding of the nature and application of mathematics absolutely necessary in to- day’s world. The exceptionally thorough and comprehensive mathematics program at Glynn Academy is justly famed. Far from being only an unpleasant necessity, mathematics ranks high on the list of student interests, as shown by the large number of students participating in the annual math contest. MR. OREN D.
