IN
MEMORIAM
Dr. Pam Crawford
Jacksonville University
Professor of Mathematics
The Jacksonville University family
celebrated the life and legacy of
Dr. Pam Crawford on Thursday,
March 21, 2019, in Terry Concert
Hall. The sudden loss of Dr.
Crawford came as a shock to many
who knew and loved her.
Dr. Crawford was a caring, dedicated
colleague, educator, and mentor, who
served as Chair of the Department
of Mathematics and as the
University’s liaison for the Southern
Association for Colleges and Schools
Commission on Colleges.
Originally from Pennsylvania,
Dr. Crawford earned her B.A.
and M.S. from Lehigh University
and her Ph.D. from Western
Michigan University. Honored as
the Jacksonville University 2015-
16 Professor of the Year, she was
passionate about complex variables
and the teaching and learning of
collegiate math.
Her love for the history of mathematics
took her to England, where in 2009
and 2018 she investigated historical
mathematical sites and artifacts,
including Newton’s apple tree.
She also was proud to publish a joint
paper with Drs. Moseley, Nancarrow,
and Ward on Calculus Challenges: An
Active-Learning Approach in PRIMUS
(Taylor & Francis, May 2018) and a
chapter in the volume Doing the
Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
in Mathematics (MAA, January 2015).
Dr. Crawford’s two decades of service
at Jacksonville University marked a
deeply held commitment to learning
and service. Her leadership and
passion shone brightly. While the
Dolphin community mourns, the
University also honors her life and
work by reflecting on the lasting
impact one individual can make
in the lives of students, colleagues,
friends, and family.
As a memorial to Pam, her family
has created the Dr. Pam Crawford
Mathematics Scholarship Fund.
