The chapter was formally installed during a ceremony held in the Solarium, where 11 students were inducted as founding members. The event brought together faculty, staff, and students to celebrate academic achievement and the continued growth of the college’s mathematics program.
Founded in 1931, Kappa Mu Epsilon promotes interest in mathematics among undergraduate students and recognizes those who demonstrate high standards of scholarship, professional merit, and academic distinction. Chapters are established at colleges and universities with strong mathematics programs, connecting students to a broader national network of scholars in the field.
“Establishing the first chapter of Kappa Mu Epsilon on our campus represents more than an academic milestone—it reflects a growing culture of curiosity, rigor, and collaboration at Flagler College,” said Dr. Carrie Grant, chair of the Department of Mathematics and Technology.
“It affirms that excellence in mathematics is valued here and that students who are passionate about problem-solving, logic, and discovery have a home. For the Flagler community, this inaugural chapter signals a commitment to scholarship that challenges minds and strengthens our shared pursuit of knowledge.”
As founding members, the inductees will play a key role in shaping the chapter’s future, helping to foster engagement with mathematics across campus while contributing to a legacy of academic excellence.
The installation of Kappa Mu Epsilon reflects Flagler College’s continued commitment to academic achievement and student success, creating new opportunities for recognition, collaboration, and intellectual growth within the discipline.
