Math Professor Lisa Fastenberg Appointed to Pace’s Board of Trustees
Associate Professor and Chair of the Mathematics Department on the Pleasantville campus Lisa Fastenberg, PhD, has been appointed to Pace’s Board of Trustees.
Fastenberg, who has been a member of Pace faculty since 2001 and has served as chair of the Mathematics Department since 2013, will begin a three-year term, during which she will bring a wealth of academic leadership and expertise in mathematics education to the board.
Her teaching has included the full spectrum of the mathematics curriculum at Pace, ranging from developmental to advanced courses for mathematics majors, with her research focus being the rank of elliptic surfaces in characteristic zero, a topic within the field of Number Theory.
Also active in the Pace community outside of the academic sphere, Fastenberg has served in leadership roles including co-chair of the Retention Task Force, chair of the Westchester Faculty Council Admissions and Retention Committee, and three terms on the Executive Committee of the Westchester Faculty Council.
“I am honored to join the Board of Trustees and contribute to the continued growth and success of ĢƵվ,” said Fastenberg. “Having spent more than two decades teaching and supporting our students, I look forward to bringing the faculty perspective to the Board’s work.”
