- Dennis Wildfogel first taught calculus over forty years ago. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Barbara under the direction of Prof. Ky Fan.
- In case you’ve seen my “How Big Is Infinity?” video, thought I’d tell you a bit about my personal connection to that topic. As mentioned in the video, I first heard about the idea of matching different infinite sets when I was in fourth grade. I certainly did not get it all then. As a senior in high school, I had a class that went through this material and I was gratified to finally be able to understand it. More amazingly, that summer, 1963, I read in the newspaper about Paul J. Cohen’s work, which had just been published – right after I had learned about this stuff (right up to but, of course, not including his work)! Then five years later, as a graduate student, I had a class from Prof. Cohen and had the good fortune of being able to speak with him on several occasions.
