I know that Amanda Rinaldi has been reminding OUCTMers, but I’d like to further compel you to attend. His talk should be entertaining and informative. He directs his message to a love of math at a level appropriate to everyone.
I hope to see you there.

Subject: Kennedy Lecture Tuesday evening
Date: November 11, 2013 at 10:51:43 AM EST

A reminder that Dr. Keith Devlin (Stanford University Professor of Mathematics) AKA the Math Guy on NPR will be speaking Tuesday evening

Date: November 12, 2013 @ 7:30pm

Location: Templeton Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium

Please email your students especially if you are in one of the science departments but hey EVERYBODY uses math and should appreciate its value.  And the topic on which Devlin will be speaking is fascinating.

Speaker Topic: Leonardo and Steve: The Young genius who Beat Apple to Market by 800 years. The first personal computing revolution took place not in Silicon Valley in the 1980s, but in Pisa in the 13th century. The medieval counterpart to Steve Jobs was a young Italian called Leonardo, better known today by the nickname Fibonacci. Thanks to a recently discovered manuscript in a library in Florence, the story of how this little-known genius came to launch the modern commercial world can now be told.

I hope to see you at Mem Aud tomorrow evening, thanks,

Scott M. Moody, Ph.D.
Chair, Kennedy Lecture and Frontiers in Science Committee
Associate Professor of  Biology
