Mu Alpha Theta Chalks Up Mathematical Year Tangents, factorials, square roots and advanced math terms were common words among Mu Alpha Theta members. The pur- pose of this club was to promote scholarship in and enjoyment and understanding of mathematics. As the club advanced toward these goals, a possibility existed of winning a nationally-sponsored award. This, however, was not the main idea of the club and the Thursday afternoon meetings were more involved with learning and enjoying math. Several members of the King faculty spoke to the club as well as a guest speaker from a petrolejini association. Other activi- ties were a trip to the University of Texas in the spring and a visit to N.ASA. Corpus Christi. The selling of King pennants for two vears raised the money for these field trips. Head mathematician was Steve Lasater who served as president. Patti Raine helped him lead the club in her role of vice president. Denise Baker and Cheri Perry- were secretary and treasurer, respectively, while Mike Grey was historian. Mr. Bill King a.ssisted and spon.sored the club.
