Ada's latest news

Two Ada part-time students at Rhodes State College were named to the 2017 summer semester dean's list.

Students are: Ronald Michael Roberts and Tamara Sue Thompson.   

Jon E. Sprague, R.Ph., Ph.D., director and BCI Eminent Scholar at the Ohio Attorney General’s Center for the Future of Forensic Science at Bowling Green State University, and a leading authority on Ecstasy research, will be speaking at the University of Findlay from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 30 in the Davis Street Building, Room 2225.

Sprague’s presentation, “The Neurobiology of Substance-Use Disorders,” will be part of the fall semester pharmacy course, free for all campus and community members, titled “Combating Chemical Dependence: A Community Effort.” The course, with weekly classes, is offered as an elective for credit and to members of the community at no charge.

"This book is perfect for the pure-mathematics-minded educator in a small undergraduate college as well as graduate students and advanced undergraduate students looking for a significant high-impact learning experience in mathematics.”

A research monograph written by Mihai Caragiu, Ph.D., professor of mathematics and chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Ohio Northern University, was recently released.

“Sequential Experiment with Primes” (Springer Nature, 2017) is designed for fellow educators and advanced mathematics students.

Fittingly, it reflects Caragiu’s work with ONU students.

“It is an extension of my research done at ONU that also involved our undergraduates,” he explained.
