Mathematical Evolution
From the Stillwell remembrance, a Shenitzer quote —
"An English major may or may not be a novelist or a poet,
but would undoubtedly be expected to be able to evaluate
a novel or a poem. The term 'English major' implies some
historical, philosophical, and evaluative training and
competence. It is sad but true that the term 'mathematician'
does not imply corresponding training and competence."
