About the Authors

John Meier is Professor of Mathematics at Lafayette College, Pennsylvania, where he also served as Dean of the Curriculum. His research focuses on geometric group theory and involves algorithmic, combinatorial, geometric and topological issues that arise in the study of infinite groups. In addition to teaching awards from Cornell University, New York, and Lafayette College, Professor Meier is the proud recipient of the James Crawford Teaching Prize from the Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware section of the Mathematical Association of America.

Derek Smith is Associate Professor of Mathematics at Lafayette College, Pennsylvania. His research focuses on algebra, combinatorics, and geometry. He has taught a wide variety of undergraduate courses in mathematics and other subjects in both the United States and Europe. He is the recipient of multiple teaching awards at Lafayette, and his work has been supported by the Mathematical Association of America and the National Science Foundation. Professor Smith is a former editor of the problem section of Math Horizons.
