About 135 high-school students will arrive on campus Thursday, Sept. 25 for the 9th annual triMATHlon math contest.
The math contest consists of three stages. During the Extreme Team Challenge, an outdoor event, teams produce written solutions to problems involving Doane's campus. The Individual Written Test is a 30-question, multiple-choice exam. The Math Bowl pairs three-person teams in a quick-answer quiz bowl tournament.
