"Quantitative literacy is NOT optional. The current Mathematics in the Modern World course already possesses the potential to address these needs and may further be refined, deepened, or redirected WITHOUT its removal from the curriculum.

Rather than eliminating mathematics from the GEC, efforts should instead focus on strengthening and reimagining existing mathematics courses such as Mathematics in the Modern World so that they continue to develop numerate, critical, reflective, creative, and socially responsive graduates."

Mathematics is a cornerstone of a sound education. To remove it is to deprive our future leaders of the essential tools they will need to navigate and question an ever more data-driven world.
