Editorial:

It's mid-March and that means different things in different places.
Lots of schools are on Spring Break, we just celebrated Pi Day, March
Madness is in full swing, tenure track hiring is winding down, tenure
decisions are being made (I'm keeping my fingers crossed), and as always
here at YMN, there's lots of interesting math subjects being discussed.

Here's just a quick view of the latest postings:
