    On this episode, we spoke with Dr. Will Murray, who is the new undergraduate chair and former undergraduate advisor.   Can you please introduce yourself? (name, years at CSULB, classes that you teach, where did you go to school?) Why did you choose to study math? What was your math journey like(was it super easy? Super difficult? What made it being so hard worth the struggle?) Why did you become a professor? Was there anything you did as an undergraduate to help you get ready for grad school? Or if you even wanted to go to grade school? What do you think makes pure math and applied math different? Do you have any research you are working on? If so what is it? If not, then could you talk about your PHD or any other research you did? What is your favorite theorem
