Florida State University has devised a fascinating math challenge
for the general public. They sent us a press release with the
following headline:

   FSU Pilot Project Cuts Low Algebra Grades in Half

The press release goes on to explain that:
   [A] two-year pilot program at Florida State University has
   changed the way students learn and prepare for tests, and
   has improved test scores in the process.
