I heard Prof. Beran is teaching MAT 102 in the August Intersession! You will get 3 credits in just 2 weeks! The class starts August 23 but registration has started. If you want to take the class, you should register as soon as possible before the class is closed. Keep in mind, Prof. Beran is the best math teacher at Pace University!!
