David Klein (mathematician)
David Klein is a professor of Mathematics at California State University in Northridge.[1] He is an advocate of increasingly rigorous treatment of mathematics in school curricula and a frequently cited opponent of reforms based on the NCTM standards. One of the participants in the founding of Mathematically Correct, Klein appears regularly in the Math Wars.
Klein strongly opposes students participating in study-abroad programs in Israel, and has spoken out in support of University of Michigan associate professor John Cheney-Lippold, who publicly refused to recommend a student for such a program at Tel Aviv University on the grounds that Tel Aviv University is in Israel. [2] Klein is the director of CSUNs Climate Science Program.
