R. Kent Nagle

R. Kent Nagle, a native of Detroit, Michigan, moved to Tampa, Florida, in 1976 from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Nagle was a mathematics professor at the University of South Florida, an Army veteran of the Vietnam War, and a member of Lake Magdalene United Methodist Church. The R. Kent Nagle Lecture Series (NLS) at the University of South Florida was established in honor of Professor Nagle, a mathematician deeply interested not only in mathematics in itself, but also in mathematics education and the impact of mathematics on society. In this spirit, the NLS has invited world-renowned scholars to speak on such matters in lectures designed for the general public. Sources: Find a Grave and University of South Florida
