PRIMUS: Problems, Resources, and Issues in Math Undergraduate Studies is a refereed journal devoted to exchange of ideas among teachers of undergrad math.
I am very proud and excited to share the PRIMUS 2019 Editors' Picks, which are freely available for all of 2020. Follow this link to read a blog post why I am excited for you all to read these five papers.
