| Sep 7, 2011 at 20:09 | comment | added | Manya | Thank you, Allen. But I think André has a point. Actually I had come back to this site in order to remove this comment because I wasn't sure these observations generalized, not even completely from my experience. | |
| Sep 7, 2011 at 15:48 | comment | added | Allen Knutson | I think Manya makes that extremely clear with phrases like "my math colleagues" and "groups I have been with". | |
| Sep 7, 2011 at 14:34 | comment | added | André Henriques | Manya: You are just listing some of your personal experiences. It's anecdotal. No all math departments are as the one you describe. Not all math ed departments are as the one you describe... | |
