Editorial Team

PRIMUS was started by founding editor-in-chief Brian Winkel in 1991 to address the lack of venues for tertiary mathematics educators to share their pedagogical work. In 2011, Jo Ellis-Monaghan became the second editor-in-chief, with Matt Boelkins serving as associate editor. In 2017, Ellis-Monaghan and Boelkins became co-editors-in-chief. Currently, Matt Boelkins serves as editor in chief, Kathy Weld as associate editor, Brian P Katz serves as associate and communications editor, and Rachel Schwell as managing editor.
