Hope College is in Holland, Michigan, NOT Madison, Wisconsin. This interview took place in Madison perhaps, but the College he is a part of, Hope College, is in Holland Michigan! :)

@quincybearalbe would you get a life!!! what is wrong with making math a little more interesting you need to get a grip.

Where's the calculus? I just see the dog. There are phenomenal math prof's at this school who don't need a dog to promote their love of the subject, and neither should any student. Being given the chance to learn calc is, in and of itself, a great privilege, that many people around the world are not afforded. So, leave the pup out of it, please, and get back to the topic. If you don't like math, than don't do it. But don't use a dog to sell it; or, if you are, show the real research.

Elvis is hilarious! I go to Hope: saw him almost every day last semester!

But yeah, Hope College is definitely in Holland, MI!
