Detailed Information

“Camp” of Mathematical Queeries is a four-week virtual mathematics enrichment program tailored for 2SLGBTQIA+ teens entering grades 9-12. This innovative program is not just about numbers; it’s about celebrating the diverse knowledge and experiences within the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. By intertwining 2SLGBTQIA+ and mathematical identities, we create a unique space where students can explore the beauty of mathematics while affirming their own identities and connect with other students and mentors who identify as queer and/or trans.

We care about this so much that even the “Camp” name was designed to affirm queer and trans identities! The program’s name, “Camp” of Mathematical Queeries, pays tribute to 2SLGBTQIA+ cultural heritage, drawing inspiration from the vibrant world of drag and camp aesthetics. “Queeries” adds a playful twist, encouraging students to question and explore math in unconventional ways. Throughout the program, participants will tackle group-worthy mathematical challenges that help them explore real-world applications of mathematics that also connect to 2SLGBTQIA+ culture and history, offering a dynamic, interdisciplinary, and engaging learning experience like no other.
