Welcome to Kathleen Shannon's web, a collection of sites to support my teaching, research, service and other interests. If you are interested in mathematical patterns; cellular automata; computer graphics; visualization of abstract concepts, in particular abstract algebra; Pascal's triangle; tilings; or just neat pictures, try the PascGalois Project link. If you are interested in courses, syllabi, assignments, etc. or college level mathematics instruction in general, try the courses link. Otherwise, feel free to just browse . . .

Did you notice when google became a verb?

Office: Henson Science Hall Room 132A
I check e-mail regularly 
or you can call the department's administrative assistant at (410) 543-6471.

For more ideas on how to contact me, check out my schedule.
Would you like to see my Niece? or my older Nephew or see them both with their new baby brother? 

Personal Data

Education:

Thesis area: convex sets and the geometry of computation. Some relationships between planar convex sets and their support functions are explored. In particular, a limit of Lemoine processes leading to the Steiner Point is presented and generalized to non-convex sets and collections of lines.

Thesis advisor: P.J. Davis, Ph.D., Brown University
