**More on Counted Out:

Do you love documentaries? I really hope you can join me in watching this movie. Too many people are Counted Out of opportunities because of math. Math is a part of every university program, and many students come to college with previous bad experiences in mathematics. This film is about changing that conversation and creating a new direction so that students are empowered to engage in a new relationship with mathematics. Please join me, and if you have any questions, let me know. Let’s start some conversations. Invite students and the community!
Best, Brynja Kohler
