MAA Social Media

We might be almost 100-years-old, but the Mathematical Association of America is very much engaged in the tools and technology of the twenty-first century. We believe that new media outlets offer us a great opportunity to engage with our members and the greater mathematical community online. Join the conversation and connect with MAA members on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, and MAA blogs.

The MAA Facebook page is updated daily with MAA announcements, new MAA books and publications, math news, and even photo contests.

MAA's YouTube channel is a collection of video clips from MAA's Distinguished Lecture Series and MAA Events, as well as some of our favorite math-related videos from the YouTube community.

Browse through photos from MAA Carriage House Events, our two annual meetings (MAA MathFest and Joint Mathematics Meetings), and American Mathematics Competitions events. MAA also sponsors public groups where members can upload their photos from our national meetings.

MAA Blogs

Exercise your mind daily with a problem from the AMC-8, AMC-10, or AMC-12, provided by MAA's American Mathematics Competitions.

Every working day, we post a number and offer a selection of that number’s properties. Have a favorite number that you want to see profiled here? Email editor@maa.org.

Debating everything from pedagogy to politics, readers are given a forum to respond to the provocative back-page editorials that appear in every issue of Math Horizons.

Historical mathematical materials, including texts, documents, and artifacts from the collections of David Eugene Smith and George Arthur Plimpton. These treasures are online through the cooperation of Columbia University Libraries and  MAA.

Who's That Mathematician? Images from the Paul R. Halmos Photograph Collection

Well-known and warmly remembered mathematical researcher, educator, and expositor and “great friend of the MAA” Paul R. Halmos (1916-2006) enjoyed snapping photographs of mathematicians he met around the world and at his various home campuses in the U.S.

MAA Columnists

We recently switched the format of our most popular columns to allow comments from readers.

A monthly column by David Bressoud, Past-President of the MAA and DeWitt Wallace Professor of Mathematics at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota.

A monthly column by mathematician Keith Devlin. Devlin is the Executive Director of the Human-Sciences and Technologies Advanced Research Institute (H-STAR) at Stanford University andThe Math Guy on NPR's Weekend Edition.

A bimonthly column by Colm Mulcahy that explores mathematical card principles and effects for fun, very much inspired by the extensive writings of Martin Gardner (1914-2010) on the subject, going back to his seminalMathematics, Magic and Mystery (1956).

MAA Found Math

The MAA homepage features a new math-related photo every week. The photos are taken by our members and submitted to Laura McHugh at editor@maa.org. We started this feature in 2007. Browse through the entire MAA Found Math Gallery. MAA Found Math is also on Flickr.
