15th Anniversary: Ross Remembers

I can't believe that it has been 15 years. It seems like only yesterday that we published Volume 1 Number 1 of the Exemplars Mathematics Subscription. That first issue had less than a dozen subscribers and contained six mathematics tasks, two at K-2, two at 3-5 and two at 6-8. Today there are Exemplars users in 50 states and 27 countries.
