[math4] FourthGradeMath Digest, Vol 4, Issue 7

[Stephen Jacobs]

Shack .01 is begining with several students from the RIT class working  
full-time on projects over the summer.  It's still coming together so  
we'll have a better idea of how many students and projects sometime  
next week.  Looking forward to your participation :-)
