Geocache Description:

This is, in a way, the start of our 25th Anniversary series because this is where we met. We were both earning AAS degrees in Electronics and met in a Calculus class (thus the name). At school time you will need to park off campus unless you have a Calhoun decal for your car. Can be high muggle area.

Since we both had to work hard in math to get our degrees, we think you need to put a little effort into this one, too. The following easy Algebraic (no calculus!) problem, when solved, provides the numbers needed to find the cache. (2y³-3y²+y+5)+(4y³+6y²+6y+3)= Ay³+By²+Cy+D Now find the real coordinates by inserting the number for the letter. B4 BD.CBC ODA 5A.DAD
