Numb3rs consultants get the math right!

I read an article about several Numb3rs consultants at my alma mater, the University of Illinois. According to the article, Numb3rs recently won a Public Service Award from the National Science Board for “their contributions toward increasing scientific and mathematical literacy on a broad scale.” They also “won the Carl Sagan Award for the Public Understanding of Science this past May, and kudos from the Mathematical Association of America, for getting the math right.” I wrote about Numb3rs here.
