Paul Joseph Sally, Jr. (January 29, 1933 – December 30, 2013) was a professor of mathematics at the University of Chicago,^[1] where he was the Director of Undergraduate Studies for 30 years.^{[2] [3]} His research areas were p-adic analysis and representation theory.^[4]

He created several programs to improve the preparation of school mathematics teachers, and was seen by many as "a legendary math professor at the University of Chicago".^[5]

Life and education [edit]

Sally was born in the Roslindale neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts on January 29, 1933.^{[6] [7]} He was a star basketball player at Boston College High School.^{[4] [7]} He received his BS and MS degrees from Boston College in 1954 and 1956.^[8]

After a short career in Boston area high schools and at Boston College^[9] he entered the first class of mathematics graduate students at Brandeis in 1957 ^[4] and earned his PhD in 1965.^[6] During his graduate career he married Judith D. Sally and had three children in three years. David, the oldest, is a Visiting Associate Professor of Business Administration at Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College,^{[4] [10]} Stephen is a partner at Ropes & Gray,^{[4] [11]} and Paul, the youngest, is Superintendent at New Trier High School.^{[4] [12]}

Sally was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 1948.^[13] The condition resulted in his use of an eye patch and two prosthetic legs,^[14] which caused him to be widely referred to as "Professor Pirate," and "The Math Pirate" around the University of Chicago campus.^[7] He was known to detest cell phones in class and has destroyed several over the years by inviting students to stomp on them or by throwing them out of a window.^[4]

Career [edit]

Sally joined the University of Chicago faculty in 1965 and taught there until his death.^[4] He was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study from 1967–68, 1971–72, 1981–82, and 1983–84.^[15]

While at the IAS he collaborated with Joseph Shalika.^[16] In 1983, he became the first director of the University of Chicago School Mathematics Project, which is responsible for the Everyday Mathematics program (also called "Chicago math").^[4]

He founded Seminars for Elementary Specialists and Mathematics Educators (SESAME) in 1992.^[4] He co-founded the Young Scholars Program with Dr. Diane Herrmann in 1988, providing mathematical enrichment for gifted Chicago-area students in grades 7–12.^{[4] [17]}

Death [edit]

Sally died December 30, 2013, aged 80, from congestive heart failure, at the University of Chicago Hospital.^{[2] [18] [19]}

Awards [edit]

• Amoco Foundation Award for Long-Term Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching, 1995^{[8] [20]}
• American Mathematical Society Distinguished Service Award, 2000^[21]
• Deborah and Franklin Haimo Awards for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics of the Mathematical Association of America, 2002^[21]
