The Paper has a featured story on the Artino Mathematics Tutoring Center: More than Numbers: A Look Into the Artino Mathematics Tutoring Center at CCNY.

The article discusses the evolution and impact of the Artino Mathematics Tutoring Center (AMTC) at The City College of New York (CCNY), detailing its transformation from informal Saturday sessions led by David John into an official, seven-day-a-week resource. It highlights the center's growth, which now includes scheduled virtual and in-person appointments via the Navigate app, and its commitment to fostering a community-based learning environment to help students overcome "math phobia." The AMTC offers various services, including the specialized AMTC+ program for students repeating classes, and is continuously seeking to expand support for students.

Supported Math Courses currently include:

• Math 15000: Mathematics for the Contemporary World
• Math 17300: Introduction to Probability and Statistics
• Math 18000: Quantitative Reasoning
• Math 18500: Basic Ideas in Mathematics
• Math 19000: College Algebra and Trigonometry
• Math 19500: Precalculus
• Math 20100: Calculus I
• Math 20500: Elements of Calculus
• Math 20900: Elements of Calculus and Statistics
• Math 21200: Calculus II with Introduction to Multivariable Functions
• Math 21300: Calculus III with Vector Analysis
• Math 30800: Bridge to Advanced Mathematics
• Math 34600: Elements of Linear Algebra
• Math 39100: Methods of Differential Equations

Courses in other departments are also supported.

Lathisms is an initiative focused on showcasing the contributions of Latinx and Hispanic mathematicians in the field of mathematics. It features the biography of Dr. Sánchez-Muñiz in its 2025 Calendar.

The Dr. Barnett and Jean Hollander Rich Mathematics Scholarships support CCNY students, including students in the CCNY mathematics graduate program. This year there were 6 scholarships awarded to incoming students in the Master's program, a record high number! These students join 7 continuing students who are also supported by the Rich Scholarship. The generous support from the Rich Endowment provides full tuition for these scholarship recipients, as well as a modest stipend for academic expenses.

For more information on the Rich Scholarships and the CCNY Math Master's program, please see our webpage here or contact the graduate chair at mathgradchair@ccny.cuny.edu.

Distinguished Professor Benjamin Steinberg received a National Science Foundation grant from the Analysis program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences. He will serve as lead investigator on the project, "Dynamics Through the Viewpoint of Self-Similar Algebras: Topological Markov Chains and Self-Similar Groups" with researchers Efren Ruiz from the University of Hawaii-Hilo and Adam Dor-On at Haifa University. The team plans to strengthen connections between dynamics, group theory, operator algebra theory, and ring theory. The program builds on previous progress in classifying simple C*-algebras and aims to shed light on some of the most important problems in symbolic dynamics, graph algebras, as well as on self-similar groups and their associated algebras.

The Artino Mathematics Tutoring Center has posted F25 tutoring hours for both in-person tutoring in NAC 1/511 and remote.
