Teams for Math 455 Projects

I tried very hard to take your surveys into account and to balance skills and interests throughout the groups. But it was not easy to set these up! I have a new appreciation for the trials the three little league coaches endured in the tiny town where I grew up, when they met every year at the Pizza Hut to pick teams (although most of their problems were about picking which team was going to be stuck with me).

All of you should be listed in the UMass Student Directory so I won't put any contact information here. But if you are having trouble contacting someone let me know and I can give you more details.
