Is there a theorem or a mathematician that you think you can find some interesting information on?  Is there a career related to any of these subjects—perhaps one you learned about in class—that intrigues you, and you would like to investigate that career? Your final paper will be 3-4 pages DOUBLE SPACED, Times New Roman, 12 pt font (unless you have accommodated writing requirements). You will have to find research from a minimum of four sources.
