Day 5, Mat194: Mathematical Sciences Seminar

• Today we welcome Steve Long, Marketing Analyst and statistician, consultant to P&G (and the "big corporate world"), self-employed data analyst, now re-purposed.... and always my brother!:)

• I really enjoyed some nice tic-tac-toe proofs.

  I told you that "This should be a convincing argument, more than a formal proof."

  My proof ran to five pages. Some of you wrote about three lines. I'm thinking that's not enough.

• Whoops! I forgot to put out the response form for Greg Lemmon's talk!

  The form

  Please hand that in for next time (if you were actually there!:).

• Upcoming events:
  • Math major/minor lunch! This Friday -- hope that you can be there, up on the fourth floor, around noon.
  • The author of "Code Girls" will be with us Thursday night, at 7:00, in the Otto Budig theater. Should be very interesting.
  • The Celebration of Student Research is coming up April -- the 10th and 11th. There are opportunities to visit talks, or the big poster session.
  • The KYMAA (Kentucky Mathematical Association of America) will be holding its spring meeting April 6-7, 2018 at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, KY.

    It's a hoof, but it should be fun. If you're interested let me know -- you'll no doubt be able to take care of all four of your events this way, if you so wish.

He's going to love taking your questions! Please feel free to interject at any time.
